Chances are I’m missing something— @aaronpk @leahculver does this make sense to either of you?

Yes, you're right, but that doesn't mean PKCE is not secure. This is just an inherent limitation of public clients that can't use a client secret. PKCE does solve several attacks, but it doesn't provide authentication of the app itself.

Ideally though, an identity shouldn't have to be tied to a server, even if I own it?

That's one opinion yes. There are good arguments on both sides.

That's very true, and the Wordpress plugin makes the case as well.

Yep although the WordPress plugin requires some active effort by the user. At least it’s just installing a plugin and not dealing with markup though.

That's part of it, though the RelMeAuth model can mitigate that to some extent. A lot of it is having a use case to authorise for. Micropub is one use case that can make sense to users

Nah, don’t forget that every micro.blog account is an IndieAuth account too. Users don’t need to have any knowledge of anything under the hood for that to work. We need more service providers to implement it more than anything.

(fwiw, we're working on a really awesome auth flow for conde that is custom-built because all the vendors big enough to support us are busy selling horses)

I would actually be very curious to learn more about this, cause we've got some fun stuff coming down the pipe too

You *know* that's like Ford offering fast horses that will run alongside the car... 😜

sometimes you have to sell faster horses until people realize what they actually want is a car 😄

Security questions are never the right thing. Don't let the infosec bullies resort to ableist (good memory much?) tactics because they suck at UX. ❤️

Not to kick the can down the road, but we wouldn't even provide the option of a security question if people didn't ask for it 😦

@aaronpk Thanks — gonna try that myself. Even if it helps a little, it’ll be worth the effort.

I've been getting 1-2 calls a day for the last few weeks from this, always a company assuming I have some role based on my title that I definitely don't have. I really hope this makes it stop.

Oh god. Was there an exec who moved from @united to @okta? @aaronpk what happened to make this a thing? 😭

Ugh I know. The good news is the admin can disable security questions on the entire org if they want.

@aaronpk I'm going to do a livestream in someone's youtube channel. The live has been programmed and it's public, but doesn't appear in their channel, so people can't see it and add a reminder like in your channel. Am I missing something?
Thanks!

There's an option under "customize channel" to add a "featured section" that shows the next upcoming livestream. It takes a bit to find and youtube keeps rearranging stuff. Hope that helps!

Hm, weird, wonder if it updates at weird intervals or something.

It was hovering around that number during the stream too, really weird. I'm sure it's just some weird bug

@aaronpk Watching the recording of today’s livestream rn. I’ve seen reference to mystery low bitrates before from others. It’s certainly due to (nearly) static screens allowing the ATEM Mini’s encoder to reduce the bitrate dynamically without reducing perceptive quality, right?

Normally yes, and I regularly see low bitrates on my countdown screen and when sharing my computer screen. But it was showing that low bitrate even when it was on my regular video feed so it was definitely not encoding at that bitrate or it would have looked like trash.

Note to my fellow creators...don't release a video on the day of the Super Bowl unless it's about the Super Bowl. You'll regret it.

they scheduled the superbowl on my livestream day, I'm gonna do it anyway

How might I build a front end only Disqus-like comments section (i.e., add one line of JS, get comments on a page) with no centralized components, no blockchain, and no required authentication? Is there a decentralized key value store I'm missing?

If you had enough visitors always on the page you could "store" them in webtorrents, so that all the visitors to your site would be participating in storing all the comments.

Ended up getting an AJA KUMO 1616 12G instead. The VideoHub mod is expensive to ship and import to where I live. Very happy with the KUMO so far, it's small and fanless. It doesn't have any controls on the front panel, but the web interface and Companion do the job.

Ah very nice! I knew 16 wasn't going to be enough for me so I would have had to jump up to the 32x32 which is quite a bit more expensive

Sorting through my photo archives and it's possible that I may have traveled slightly too much in the past. Maybe.

haha same.

Tangentially, what do you use for photo archives these days? I used to use Flickr extensively but I'm not super happy with it anymore.
