    What would it take to get #IndieAuth working with #Mastodon / #NextCloud / #Peertube etc? Are there any major changes required in the way the various #Activitypub apps do things to be able to support this?

    It seems to me that IndyAuth or something like it are badly needed in the #fediverse, as the more #decentralized we get, the more accounts users end up needing, compared to #gasm et al.

    Aaron Parecki
    I totally agree, all the fediverse sites would really benefit from IndieAuth! Mastodon is already set up to add it with very few changes. Users already have a profile URL, and they already have an OAuth API. It would be just a few minor changes to turn that into IndieAuth, and then app developers can drop the whole API key registration part.

    Something got me thinking about comments on my website here. Almost no one posts native replies on my posts. I’d have to think that 99.9999% of all the replies on my website are now via Webmention. Perhaps I should cut off native replies just to cut back on the amount of spam I get? Hmmm….

    This morning I gave a brief talk about IndieAuth at the @W3C Strong Authentication and Identity workshop. I just finished transcribing the recording and published the slides and video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeCNlB7v08I

    Well that's an amazing little bug you've found. The 40 other accounts are actually 40 other accounts that don't have a Foursquare account connected.

    I'm not quite sure how you got into that state, but try clicking "Disconnect Foursquare" and I'm hoping it will then ask you to connect Foursquare again. If that doesn't work, I need to fix things up a bit.

    Hi Karen, this interests me. Is there a W3C working group on this?
    Aaron Parecki
    Some of this was being done in the Social Web WG which wrapped up early this year. Right now most of this is continuing in the IndieWeb community: https://indieauth.net https://indieweb.org

    Is it impossible to do an open-source CLI tool that connects to an OAuth2 API without either exposing the app key or hosting a service just to do key exchange stuff?
    Aaron Parecki
    Generally yes. You could ask the user to get their own API keys though. You could also register the app as a "public client" so that you never get a secret, then it's okay to put the client_id in the app. (Only some APIs let you do this tho)

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
