Yeah, we're basically on the same page here. Their instance, their rules.

I'm hopeful that in the future, accounts will be "in the fediverse", and end users can choose what they want to see or not see. Then it's on the instance that's hosting the community to determine what's okay to host or not.

How would you want to handle authentication? The user stores their own keyring, like Nostr?

[–] skankhunt42@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Never heard of Nostr.

PKI? GPG? Private key shows you own the account. All instances keep a copy of your public key. You go direct to the instance to get the content. When you want to post you sign your message and send it along.

I'm sure smarter people then me have considered this and more so I'm not sure what's possible.
