Wow, no way!

I just installed the @atpassport.net Firefox extension and managed to log into a website using FedCM in Firefox using my own PDS.

This is insane, I had no idea this was possible at all, and gives a whole opportunity for us to implement FedCM in Firefox (and maybe even Safari?).

I guess y'all need to see actual decentralised FedCM..

Heeey, look, it's me!

I'm super hyped to announce that @bsky.app have given me a grant to work on the standards for the Federated Credential Management API (or FedCM) to make them really work for all decentralized web applications.

I'm working on something better: FedCM + Identity Provider Registration: liquid.surf/fedcm has a great explainer.

That's why I've joined the FedID Working Group as an Invited Expert.
FedCM + IdP Registration — Call to action
Help push IdP registration forward: share the demo, talk about it, and submit a real-world use case.

FedCM? i think?

Thanks to you and the team taking a chance on me and trusting me with this FedCM grant!

Great to see a new author up on the @atproto.com, and @thisismissem.social no less!

It's incredibly exciting to see support for her work in general, and specifically around bringing FedCM and ATProto/ActivityPub closer together.

So could FedCM be used today to improve the atproto oauth login flow?

Right now the user must either enter their PDS or handle within the app, what will it take to use FedCM to automatically present a list of atproto identities on login?

We intent to prototype!!!

Here a demonstration how an ATProto login could look like with FedCM support, left /accounts of the PDS, middle the ATProto Oauth demo client (go) and right pdsls showing the result. The PDS FedCM /assertion endpoint creates a short lived idToken which is used in the flow as an id_token_hint

@passport now supports FedCM.
Currently, you can experience the FedCM-enabled @passport on the following services when using the Chrome browser (supported on all desktop operating systems, and Android for smartphones).

FedCM support getting baked into browsers will help solve a lot of design issues we have, give @sgo.to and @thisismissem.social and @divy.zone your feedback!
@thisismissem.social @divy.zone and I recently went through an exploration of how the browser can help you login to websites with atproto accounts.

We recently presented to the FedID CG and here is a sneak peek in case you couldn't join!

This is early but we'd love your input before we go too far!

it IS FedCM, but they also have a browser extension to help when the device doesn't support it (existed long before they made it compatible with FedCM btw)

We've been working hard on FedCM to make it work better for the decentralised web!

These new designs should enable us to support the Atmosphere (AT Protocol) and Fediverse (ActivityPub) better, including parity with centralised identity providers.

Your social login buttons run on third-party cookies. FedCM doesn't.

FedCM is still in the works and we are so lucky to have @thisismissem.social working on making it happen for decentralized social protocols.

Support @thisismissem.social and @sgo.to s work on #FEDCM

Facebook just recently exposed themselves as a FedCM IdP!!

I think this is pretty awesome, including to the atproto ecosystem, because it one more step towards making IdPs interoperate with one another!

FedCM eventually hopefully

@thisismissem.social this sounds like wonderful news!

I wonder if we could connect with @igalia.com to work together on decentralizing FedCM:

But actual FedCM can issue you a credential so you don't need to do that OAuth dance you normally need to do.

The @passport Firefox extension has been updated to support in-app handle input assist!

Under the hood, this is powered by FedCM. Please note that for this feature to work, individual apps will need to add support for @passport's FedCM. 🛠️
Developers, we'd love for you to check it out!
