Comment on Why can't we have a unified API across the fediverse to use in mobile apps?
cerevant@lemmy.world 1 year agoNo, because the model for ActivityPub is very different than how OAuth is used for authentication. What you describe is like wanting to log in to hotmail using your gmail account, and being able to send and receive e-mail from your gmail address.
It is a fundamental to ActivityPub that a user exists at a domain, and content coming from or going to that domain is sent from / to the relevant server at that domain.
