What is Hackers' Pub?

Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.

I'm exploring a new idea called FediOTP (codename): an authentication system that uses DMs to deliver one-time passwords, allowing any account to authenticate with web services. Unlike current solutions that rely on specific APIs (, ), this would work with any ActivityPub-compatible server, increasing interoperability across the fediverse. Would love to hear your thoughts on potential challenges or use cases for this approach.

hey all - wanted to introduce myself in light of my account migration to social.lol. I am a Software Engineering Manager and reformed academic by day and an amateur musician (saxophonist + guitarist), foodie, gamer and sci-fi enjoyer by night. I picked social.lol because some of the coolest people I was following from my old server are here and it seems like a laid back, inclusive and fun place. Looking forward to chatting to y'all :)
