OAuth for the Open Web

A little about the challenges of using #OAuth2 in a distributed setting for WordPress, GitLab, Mastodon, and more. Spoiler: it's not all bad news. Let's make this happen!

@aaronpk for some reason, this post does not federate well with all Mastodon instances. I'm trying to boost it from another account elsewhere, but I can't seem to see it. Any clue?

@xuv by any chance, are you trying to paste that post's URL into the search box on other Mastodon instances?

@aaronpk yes. Exactly tried that. It does not work. Also, I can't seem to see the boost I did from a different instance looking at this account.

@xuv I think I fixed it... give it a try again?

@aaronpk
this is the first post that federated with the instance I'm on. welcome!

@paulfree14 @aaronpk @xuv so is this all federating correctly now? implemented into #p3k?
