Trusting Trust in the Fediverse

A very long blog post about the various "safety and privacy" features that got added over the years to ActivityPub and how useless they can be in the eyes of users unaware of the inner workings.

There's nothing really new I talk about, but it is a long explanation of my reasoning behind why I don't take "features" such as signed fetches and interaction consent seriously. What can be considered "new" to most, is the last section of bypassing signed fetch enforcement without impersonation, which I talked about probably twice over the years.

(If there are styling issue, tell me. I've written the CSS from scratch, and I suck at it.)

they looked at my fediverse feed and went "THIS IS OUR GUY"

Hear me out.

We fork Mumble server. We change the chat to be IRC. We use Obsidian IRC (web irc clone of discord) as the client. IRCv3 SASL EXTERNAL will let us auth the user using the same key identity mumble uses. Convert the Obsidian web to Tauri for cross platform desktop app.

That's it. Self-hosted Discord, now just improve the UI and invite people to rewrite in Rust and add storage backends for the chat history and nobody needs Discord ever again.

edit: ok we can't use Tauri because it won't work right on Linux, so we have to keep using Electron until some day we have a webview engine on Linux that has all required functionality (voice/video, good performance)
