#OpenID
So many people do not get this. Atproto identity is the closest thing to original-flavor OpenID that has been done in years.

It's not OpenID (it has problems OpenID didn't and solves problems OpenID had), but it's very much in that spirit.
i guess in a way this is the most widely used one, but also one that is severely underused in other ways.

definitely identity. i've long been of the opinion that there are obviously cool things that come from public data and all the public pieces of the proto, but identity is higher impact.
@hailey.at what's your favorite atproto feature? Not the highest leverage/most widely used one, ideally something that you think is really elegant/clean at a conceptual level

I tried this in like 2005 with OpenID. Glad it's getting another chance! 🤞

I’m writing about OpenID and OAuth right now and I’ve decided I hate my life. Why is this crap so intensely hard to describe in a simple way?

I think what a lot of people actually WANT is OpenID, and ATProto's OAuth is kind of the only halfway reasonable OpenID-like thing that exists and has real users.

i keep wanting to call it openid and then going oh that's from two decades ago

AIP: OAuth 2.0/2.1 + OpenID Connect gateway for ATProtocol. Now you can use your existing tools, apps, and SDKs with your ATProtocol identity. One of the ATmosphere’s rough edges just got a lot smoother.

(Why isn't modern OpenID this way? well, the vast majority of OpenID Foundation members substantively benefit from the status quo, but to be fair OIDC does solve a lot of problems that businesses have. It's just suitable for the social applications OID was originally designed for.)

😈 I removed all CI npm tokens and switched to using trusted publishing.

I got tired of OpenID and decided to write about RSA padding. What could be simpler than RSA padding?

Except I made the mistake of asking whether RSA PKCS1v1.5 padding is probably secure and it sent me down a rabbit hole of insanity.

If the authorization server supports OpenID Connect Relying Party Metadata Choices 1.0 but does not support OAuth 2.0 Attestation-Based Client Authentication, then "none" is usable.

Sounds like OpenID!

this is what OpenID was originally before it eventually led us towards "log in with facebook"

‘internet handle’ is cute, but i think the more realistic thing is ‘login with your domain or url’

want to login to an app? just type in your domain name such as ‘dame.is’ or “*.bsky.social”

everyone on the planet basically knows what a domain/url is — we should lean into that mental model
