Finished setting up a development environment for an ActivityPub implementation with Decentralized Identifier (DID) support.
Everything seems to be routable from the web and interoperable with the Fediverse, teated with my Mastodon instance.
Backend logic with persistence layer is currently missing, i.e., under development.
Lets see where the journey bring us!
#ActivityPub #DecentralizedIdentifier #Fediverse #ProofOfConcept
#activitypub #decentralizedidentifier #fediverse #proofofconcept
What I want from #DecentralizedIdentifier standards:
A convenient URI and certificate system for verifying that a person a) is who they say that they are b) in a way that is revocable c) in a way that is portable and that allows for pseudo-anonymity d) that allows for various ways of filtering out bad actors.
What I get in #DID standards:
"You can TOTES PUT a random string after a schema in a URI! It's amazing! Also here's twenty pages on breaking the hegemonic control of ICANN."
