This blog is now a part of the #fediverse. I was inspired by the recent migration user growth on Mastodon and other federated social web sites to get the ActivityPub Wordpress plugin installed here and start federating out any posts I write here. For more info on how to get this working on your own Wordpress site, see The Fediverse beyond Mastodon | Fedi.Tips — An Unofficial Guide to Mastodon and the Fediverse. I also had to muck around with my .htaccess file and this post was very helpful.

We’ve been testing Web Authentication for a while, behind a flag, but now it’s ready to come out into the light. We’ll be featuring support for security keys connected by USB, NFC and Bluetooth — as well as on-device keys.
