@hongminhee they could. Though, with it already being an FEP and possibly directly implemented into AP at some point in the future, they'd just be undermining AP again instead of supporting the protocol that Mastodon is built on.🤷‍♂️(they could probably do the work for AP directly instead of only for Mastodon)

They don't seem to have a problem doing that, so it might happen!

@hongminhee where did this w3id fep short url come from? first time I am seeing it

@liaizon I have no idea either, but I learned it from @tesaguri (if I recall correctly).

@hongminhee@fosstodon.org have you implemented it? I'd love to see it, since it's confusing for me. I'd rather take an existing implementation if possible.

@julian @hongminhee What parts of it you find confusing? I can edit the text :)

@silverpill@mitra.social I don't think much in the FEP is confusing, it's mostly the technical implementation, calculation of proofs, etc.

As I have absolutely zero background in cryptography, I feel like this is one of those "hard problems" that should be outsourced to a common library, and not hand rolled.
