activity pub

=> update on 2023-07-05

June 21st 2023

(mostly writing this so I can finally close some of these tabs in firefox)

I've done a lot of changes to my code. Can't remember them all.

Actually ran into the request verification recursively causing more verification requests problem.

It was my server actor requesting its own public key from itself because it didn't bother to recognize itself and short circuit the logic.

I disabled signature verification for now.

I switched to using web+activitypub: URIs instead of actpub: based on the suggestions of:

=> https://github.com/activitypub-schema/proposal/blob/main/PROPOSAL.md

which was linked to from:

=> https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fediverse-ideas/issues/1

I also made a user script that made a navigator.actpub.Follow() since just letting websites ask who you are

then trusting that website to redirect you to a proper place to login and authorize a follow is kind of risky.

This javascript API method and the web+activitypub methods seem like they're kind of completing ideas.
