@liaizon @hongminhee @thisismissem I think it may be something long-standing here, is there an existing GitHub issue where I can get more background? I know it’s pretty complicated at this point though.

@andypiper @liaizon @hongminhee the version of JSON-LD Signatures that mastodon supports is old, basically they implemented it, then the spec completely changed. That's why stuff doesn't look right. The question is then: how do you migrate forwards without breaking compatibility with existing deployments. That's gonna need time & money thrown at the problem to solve. @thisismissem @liaizon @hongminhee agreed that it will take a while to resolve things due to the scale of the deployments. @thisismissem @liaizon @andypiper @hongminhee FEP-8b32 is designed to be compatible with existing implementations. The upgrade path for Mastodon may look like this: 1. Support multiple public keys per actor @liaizon @hongminhee @thisismissem no promises on how quickly this can be resolved, but it is in progress. It needs more work and probably backporting etc. https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/31871 |
