Heeey, look, it's me!
I'm super hyped to announce that @bsky.app@bsky.brid.gyBluesky have given me a grant to work on the standards for the Federated Credential Management API (or FedCM) to make them really work for all decentralized web applications.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://bsky.brid.gy/convert/ap/at://did:plc:5w4eqcxzw5jv5qfnmzxcakfy/app.bsky.feed.post/3mgniewoy322j on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
Congrats to @thisismissem.social@bsky.brid.gyEmelia for the well deserved financial support.
She contributes across atproto and ActivityPub, & with the IETF OAuth standards.
FedCM is a W3C web platform API that “allows users to login to websites with their federated accounts in a privacy preserving manner”

Emelia has already done so much great standards and auth work behind the scenes, which benefits not just atproto/atmosphere, but also ActivityPub, Solid, and other social web ecosystems.
really excited about the potential for FedCM to make login flows slick and competitive with Google/Apple/Meta
