    @aaronpk is it open source? I'm also doing the same and will be happy to contribute.

    Aaron Parecki
    For a while I was doing my own PESOS for my tweets so that I could still reply to people from the Twitter app and get those back on my site as posts. I quickly ran into a problem where I was sometimes re-importing a tweet that I had originally POSSE'd and would end up with two identical posts on my site. I wouldn't even know where to begin to try to do that with Facebook. If bridgy solves this well, I would probably use it, because I gave up running that code myself because of all the edge cases I encountered.

    I am planning on doing PESOS of my Instagram, Twitter and Flickr likes, since I still often find myself in a situation where I'm reading something on one of those silos and it's quicker to just tap their button. I would happily use a Bridgy version of that as well.

    You shouldn't be afraid of writing a micropub client for this, since it's basically a version of OAuth 2.0 which you've already dealt with on Instagram and Facebook. Also most people so far have implemented non-expiring access tokens on their sites. If you wanted to make this explicit, you could add a scope to the authorization request that would indicate such.

    @aaronpk I wish you were willing to give in and share it. Would love to see what a smart person like you would want to share with no filter.
    Aaron Parecki
    @aaronjorbin oh god. I'm flattered, but if I do this, there is gonna be no connection and full plausible deniability.

    @aaronpk yet an attempt to pretend I was the only one to take issue with the Paris reference, & using his business to set people on me

    @jaffathecake I was also trying to focus on the positive :-)

    @aaronpk And your conclusion is fine too. It's a design choice based on what problem you're trying to solve.
    Aaron Parecki
    @haxor Indeed! Great writeup too, it was a good read.

    @aaronpk what's up with having the arrow keys navigate away from the page when you are filling out the form?
    Aaron Parecki
    @zenobase oh crap! Sorry, I'll fix that! At least I made it save progress with a cookie!

    @aaronpk Everybody makes different tradeoffs. I know I would go insane if I had to manually update just the servers in my home
    Aaron Parecki
    @Johannes_Ernst Yeah it drives me nuts too. I still have a server running I've been trying to decommission for 3 years.

    @aaronpk The trick to automation is to reduce the number of variables, e.g. pick one web server. Apache has broader software support still.
    Aaron Parecki
    @Johannes_Ernst see this is why I'm still running my own servers :-(

    @aaronpk Using Apache not Nginx, but you can modify settings on a per-app basis
    Aaron Parecki
    @Johannes_Ernst oh darn, I started moving everything over to nginx a while ago, not keen on switching back to Apache.

    @aaronpk Clearly you need UBOS :-) http://ubos.net/ #indieweb
    Aaron Parecki
    @Johannes_Ernst Interesting. Can I run it on a Linode or on AWS? Can I tweak Nginx settings if I need to? #indieweb

    @aral I just added some of the positive feedback to the collection as well to balance it out. Was not meant to cause any further negative reactions, just wanted to collect that feedback in a place where it won't disappear.

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.
