What concerns me about the #fediverse / #acrivitypub from a user‘s perspective, is the inflation of identities that will occur as soon as you want to use feature that the platform you started on does not offer.
I am aware that this also can happen, when you use closed services, but …
A) this on of the things that make Google or Meta attractive.
B) federation to me implies the integration of several services under one identity.
So, is a #FederatedIdentity something that is being considered? -

🗝️ A new #eduGAIN constitution was approved in September 2023.
A milestone for the service that within 12 years grew from taking its first steps into interfederation to what is now the foundation of many services in the T&I space.

I cleaned up this thread about decentralized contact book in a blog post here:
https://blogue.narf.ca/2023/09/federated-contact-book/I'm very open to receiving feedback. What is preventing this from existing? This is a old problem; why don't we have a solution yet?

Your profile could even display when it was last validated next to each field, so that your friends know it's not outdated. It would be reassuring to know that I'm about to send an email to an address that was validated less then 6 months ago. At least I'll know I'm not about to talk to a void!

Do you know any existing services that do something like that? Am I trying to re-invent something that already exists?

Of couse, it could also be provided by your existing email provider (but, again, maybe you don't want to trust #Microsoft or #Google with that! lol)
And because the quantity of data to store is small (a few text fields and maybe a couple profile photos), the cost for hosting would be quite low. Way less expensive than running a #Mastodon or #Email server.
-
And because it would be an open protocol, you could decide who you trust with your personal data. Sure, you could use #Facebook or #Google, but there would be plenty of independent hosts, just like there are thousands of email providers and phone companies!
Or you could #SelfHost it on your own personal website/server if you have one. I can imagine extensions for Wordpress, Squarespace, Linktrees or wherever people host their website these days.

This system should be an open standard, so that all existing contact book apps could implement it. Kinda like an updated version of CardDAV (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CardDAV).
And ideally, all of that would be end-to-end encrypted, so that only your friends get to see your personal data. The host where you store your profile and your friends hosts should not be able to read your contact info!

The intent of all this system would be that once you've added a friend in your contact book app, their profile would be kept up to date automatically. If they change their phone number, they change it on their profile and your contact app automatically updates itself with the new info.
Of course, if your friend wants to keep their new phone number private, they could do so. Your app would display that their phone number is outdated and that you need to request access again.
