@dajb True that. Hopefully the Bonfire (or even Mastodon) can provide all fun voting mechanisms needed in the future.

@dajb A problem with ”only” Bonfire providing such affordances is that the practices they allow wouldn’t spread as far into the fediverse as implementing them in Mastodon would. Which puts at least me back into the question of how to ”federate identity” onto other instances than your home instance. Is that even desired? Or possible?

@dajb Apparently AT addresses this with some identity layer providing a type of DID enabling nomadic identity. But apparently there are also more backwards compatible (wrt current fediverse) solutions in the works.

@dajb That’d be Bluesky’s new protocol atproto.com/

@dajb Yeah I’m not convinced either but haven’t looked into it much.

@dajb I do worry a bit about the fragility of fediverse identity though. Account migration path cut as soon as old server destructs. Ironically a plausible case for why a user would want to migrate in the first place.
