It’s always a goal but rarely does anyone succeed at getting a high number.

I had a test case where I had verbal call outs and when I didn’t. The one with call out had 7-15 people join. The video without?

Zero.

That video also had 5x more views than the others.

Data! 📊🤓

This is good anecdotal data! I will also say I rarely watch videos in full screen, so the like button is always right there. The rare exception is something I've decided ahead of time to watch more immersively like a movie, and chances are I'm already subscribed anyway

@aaronpk i found you on youtube while messing with my atem mini and now you're popping up everywhere for oauth stuff i'm working on. very cool! 👍

haha thanks! Not traveling for workshops this year has meant I've had a lot more time to make video content both for oauth and livestreaming stuff!

I am not sure. Everything looked OK. Their support does not reply.

I'll email them too, I'm having a problem with the Kindle version and need to sort that out anyway.

@Luludotcom I guess you will not provide me with the download link to my purchase of @aaronpk book OAuth 2.0 simplified. Hope you spend my money well.

What's wrong? Did something go wrong with the checkout process? I can try to take a look.

Hi @aaronpk, what credentials should the RS use for the token introspection with the AS? These Okta blog posts on the CC flow all seem to use the client credentials. But isn't this bad?

https://developer.okta.com/blog/2020/11/18/build-a-graphql-nodejs-api
https://developer.okta.com/blog/2020/07/17/secure-node-api-with-koa
https://developer.okta.com/blog/2018/08/21/build-secure-rest-api-with-node

Usually you'll create a new set of client credentials that represents the resource server, since the OAuth client shouldn't be introspecting tokens. There isn't really any other form of authentication for the API so it's kind of an overloading of the term "client credentials"

That's so early..... Do I get a sneak peak before it's I read your mind?

I don't think I can do that with a scheduled video unfortunately!

@aaronpk Any new thoughts now on the YoloBox video switcher? SInce ATEM ISO? Have a friend asking.

Funny you should ask... I literally just finished editing a video about it, it'll be live at 6:15am pacific tomorrow!

@aaronpk Hi Aaron! Thank you very much for your work on your youtube channel. I have a question for you :

What are your thoughts on PTZ cameras for live stream?

Thanks! I haven't actually used any of my own because they're just so expensive. I've used some when doing gigs at a venue that has them installed. The picture off them leaves something to be desired too, but maybe they've gotten better now.

@petermolnar Commenting on someone else's website by logging into your own site is barely intuitive for *me* never mind anyone else.
As I've said before, it feels like a bunch of guys in their 40s and 50s trying to rewind time.
Actually, this conversation has solidified my position, so thanks! 😅

Check out my "social readers" demos and talks. I'm commenting on this post using an interface that looks a lot like Twitter/Mastodon, except it results in creating a post on my website. It's actually very similar to how Mastodon works. https://indieweb.org/social_reader

If you're in the USA, sign up for the USPS's Informed Delivery too. They show you pictures of the mail you're about to get.

Yeah I have that too, it's great!

This seems to contradict the spec - https://github.com/simonw/datasette-indieauth/issues/21#issuecomment-730485391

That's for the final profile URL. The user can enter something different at the start, and if that contains a username component then the trick works.

I don't agree that it's completely glossed over - there is a registration protocol, it's just not widely implemented. The intent could be better stated, for sure, but I think IA's emphasis is too far the other way. My ideal is something in-between IndieAuth and OIDC, I think! 😊

take a look at my activitypub conference talk, starting at 11:50, I address the UX aspect of it here: https://aaronparecki.com/2020/09/22/25/activitypub-oauth-2-1#t=710

also happy to set up a time to chat about this instead! I think we have a lot of similar goals!

My goal is to enable secure, simple federated identity. Authentication is a core bit of functionality in that regard. Obviously supporting non-corporate identities is critical, but forcing everyone to be 'indie' is a mistake, I think.

nobody said "force". my goal is to *enable* indie identities, something that is pretty much completely glossed over by the current OIDC ecosystem.

I use DNSSEC since 6+ years, while I have seen many auth protocols come and go. And 'IndieAuth' I first heard today.

ah yes, the "this is the first I've heard about it" argument sure is a solid one

I literally just sprayed coffee all over my monitor at your comment. Took the wrong moment to have a sip.

I appreciate the commitment to prove this with a photo and am also very curious about what's in your bookmark toolbar and open tabs

Seems like YouTube is changing their service terms AGAIN.... It's that second bullet point that should be interesting...

What are your thoughts on the new changes to the YouTube platform?

I always assumed that was already the case. Is it not?

😢 @aaronpk knows my stance on this well - domain-based auth is exclusionary and confusing to users. IndieAuth should just use email addresses, even if it's not doesn't use webfinger and just does s/@([^.*]\..*$/\1/ with the address.

Email addresses *are* domain-based auth. I think you’re conflating two different parts of the system. In IndieAuth, the canonical user identifier doesn’t have to be the thing the user enters in a login prompt. This is also true for almost every other authentication system.

Thanks, filed an issue https://github.com/simonw/datasette-indieauth/issues/21

To be clear, I’m not sure this is a *good* idea, and it also requires a bit of code running at the web server of the root domain, but it does work.
