Gargron in master http sigs use acct:username@domain for keyId, but i plan to add support for specifying keyId using an AP URI
#
Gargron there isn't much else that's unclear about http sigs, is tehre
#
Gargron anyway, i understand implementing AP in general is daunting (i felt that way before i started). my first goal is to just have ít definitely work between mastodon implementations. there is also puck's implementation i test against
#
Gargron redistributing conversations to all participants is not by itself going to be fixed by adding AP. it's technically possible in ostatus too. we're gonna do that later
#
Gargron sorry, i think the point is not redistributing to participants, i think the point is redistributing to followers, if i remember correctly. if you are following Alice, you will get Alice's posts, but not replies to Alice's posts, unless you also follow who's replying. So Alice has to forward the replies she gets to her followers.
#
Gargron but yeah.
#
cwebber2 AP does have a distribute to followers solution
#
cwebber2 but you'd still need to sign it for it to work right for private messages
#
cwebber2 er, forward to followers

cwebber2 Gargron: anyway, happy to hear about your progress!
