On the flip side, I do partially blame Facebook for the confusing mess that authentication with OAuth (still) is.

There's always room for improvement! I would argue it's better than nothing though!

@aaronpk And when Facebook doesn’t enforce its own rules…

Sure, but that's a different problem. Point is if we didn't have OAuth apps would have been able to get a lot more data since they'd just be logging in as you!

Interesting. I have not seen those complaints. Could you perhaps share any? Clearly, #oAuth2 is about *delegation* and that is what most people miss...

"as we now learn that OAUTH, or Open Authorisation, is one of the many ways that Facebook and the app developers conspire to access not only your data, but that of your friends and contacts" http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/16100549.Iain_Macwhirter__Why_social_media_is_about_to_meet_its_regulatory_nemesis/ Not quite a fair statement.

Isn’t this what #indieweb is all about? This set of w3c standards, with shipping code, is not mentioned once. @guardian, put Ms O’Shea on that story as a followup.

It never occurred to me that people would be blaming @oauth_2 for the Facebook mess. Friendly reminder that OAuth is what lets you control *which* parts of your Facebook data apps get access to, and what lets you revoke that access, which you can do here: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications

the cool thing about #indieweb is that you don't need to wait until everyone else is using it. POSSE ftw! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8owPpJMLHFg

This seems like a good time to re-read @hertling's book Kill Process, in which the protagonist, a database programmer at the world's largest social network, decides to destroy the company by decentralizing social networking #indieweb http://amzn.to/2FWgmUc

Occurs to me that rather than build a new Facebook, this would be a really good moment for someone to create an RSS reader that emulated a timeline and featured in-line comments. I’d probably post on my blog pretty much daily if that was the thing everyone used.

Here are some screenshots of exactly that! https://aaronparecki.com/2018/03/12/17/building-an-indieweb-reader We've been making a lot of progress on this over the last few years! I do post on my blog every day thanks to this interface too! :-)

@artlung Personally, I can't wait for the microsub spec to go mainstream. I think it'll open up a whole new renaissance for feed readers. https://indieweb.org/Microsub #RSSlives
