  1. This #webfinger thing is a further puzzle. #wordpress adheres to #RFC7033 but that spec says nothing about acct beginning with @ they only use user@host examples! So is this important if a node only accepts without? Or is there a JDR trick I should know? 🤨

  2. @J12t

    "template" is defined in IETF #RFC6415 (i.e., Web Host Metadata / #hostMeta ).

    rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6415.htm

    #WebFinger 's IETF #RFC7033 mentions that here:

    "The JSON Resource Descriptor (JRD), originally introduced in RFC 6415"

  3. Weird — #Pleroma 's #WebFinger can return (#XML based) #XRD data (rather than just (#JSON based) #JRD data).

    I think the expectation from IETF #RFC7033 is that — WebFinger returns JRD (i.e., JSON Resource Descriptor format).

    ...

    I wonder if this causes any problems with any 3rd party client apps.

  4. Using Web Host Metadata's #XRD & #JRD to figure out where #WebFinger is seems unnecessarily complex to me.

    (This is used by some #Fediverse software.)
