    As an elder millennial who came of age when Google became a verb, I had difficulty grasping that ~40% of Gen Zers use TikTok for search.

    So I hosted a mini-focus group with Gen Zers to learn more.

    Here are 3 takeaways:

    I think it might be time to hire an editor, I literally do not have the mental bandwidth to spend so many hours a day editing videos anymore.

    tbh I feel like the time to hire an editor was a year ago, I don't know how you do this much yourself!

    so i made a lil #CSS library that allows you to implement a classic monochrome MacOS interface.

    calling it System.css, as it's based on Apple’s Monochrome System OS that ran from 1984-1991.

    Right now the CDC sounds like when we would REALLY get on our mom’s nerves and she’d be like “You know what? Do whatever you want then.” And like, for a second you think you won. But you really did not.

    And of course Twitter opens the link in an in-app browser:-)
    Aaron Parecki
    Oof yeah. At least they give you a button to pop out to the real browser easier.

    Two-factor authentication doesn’t protect you in the way that many people think when the second factor is phishable.

    Passkeys are phishing-resistant.

    So in your mind, no reason to ever use a webview/embedded browser?

    Or do I misunderstand?
    Aaron Parecki
    The only time you might be able to convince me that it's acceptable is if this account is only for one app and everything is all first party. If there's only ever one app then there's effectively no OAuth and everything (including the AS) is part of the app.

    Agreed, as outlined here: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8252#section-8.12

    However, many folks, esp when first party all the way through, are willing to accept the downsides for better UX (popping out to the system browser being a pretty horrible UX).

    Hobson's browser is real:

    Aaron Parecki
    Frankly the "system browser is horrible UX" argument lost a long time ago once the OSs provided in-app browsers that share system cookies but aren't visible to the app.

    I still use it every day and add new venues and everything too! It's still the best source of up to date venue information anywhere, usually even beating Google!

    Although if it is a first party oauth integration (where one company controls the mobile app, the APIs, and, through a legal contract the Authorization Server), this injection is less of an issue, right?
    Aaron Parecki
    This particular issue isn't really a problem if you control the app and AS, but there are other reasons not to embed the AS page in an in-app web view.

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.
