I'm holding on to my 6s until it stops being able to update

Awesome. I’d love to figure out a good way to do that token exchange automatically but it’s a good idea to prototype it out manually first!

someone must be following my replies feed!

That poor server has been having trouble the last few weeks. It's not mine but I do have the ability to reboot it now.

Give it a shot! I think most things are parsing the whole page for the rel values.

@manton2 *just* posted that you can add custom HTML to the footer now! http://www.manton.org/2018/07/micro-blog-hosted-footer-html-and-redirects.html so I think you can add a link to a microsub server there now!

oh no me too!

Did I ever end up talking to you about this? IndieAuth is a solution to this exact problem, as it replaces the need for client registration with making client IDs be the URL of the app and omitting the secret. (You can't use a secret on mobile apps anyway.) IndieAuth means apps don't need a prior relationship with the server.

I never knew that was a thing, but I am glad I do now!

Good point! I should have mentioned that. Also there's http://sendawebmention.com (Telegraph)

ahhhh I had to stop 30 minutes before the end last night! Can't wait to finish!

Yep! For comments from Twitter, Bridgy creates the web page and sends the HTTP request so that you can receive a webmention from a tweet just like you can receive a webmention from a normal web page. Bridgy doesn't help with sending webmentions tho.
