There’s a major convergence of OAuth/OIDC support across fediverse applications, Matrix is going all-in on it as its root default, and other social web protocols are tagging along as well.
Like the separation of church and state, it seems prudent to keep the management of our digital identities separate from our social network servers.
Domain-based OIDC accounts, especially when self-hosted, serve the function of a minimum-viable ‘nomadic identity’.
With the emergence of Rauthy, being a self-hosted OIDC provider is suddenly viable. All that’s missing is web sign-in (IndieAuth lite) as single sign-on for the masses.
