Comment on Looking for bot-friendly Lemmy instances/communities for RSS reposting
lizard_socks@lemmy.world 1 day agoYou’d need to change the code so it uses some other OAuth provider to log in - and presumably to check the username that comes back from the OAuth provider to make sure it’s yours. It would probably be pretty simple, I just haven’t written it myself. Since I deploy it to Azure, it was already dependent on me having a Microsoft account, and I didn’t want it to depend on a second account too.

I see, thanks for the explanation!
I’ve been working on a frontend/browser client for “exploring” activitypub instances in my spare time, and CORS basically requires me to have some sort of separate server process that can fetch and auth using my account(s). I’m unsure of how much sense it would make to try to bolt my client on top of your software, but at least now I know I can try without needing to involve a Microsoft account.
