What is the future of identity on the social web? Could it span federation protocols and be baked into the internet itself? What could it look like to everyday users and how would it be used?

@mike@thecanadian.social @jay.bsky.team@bsky.brid.gy It’s unfortunate that the fediverse is built on two different protocols right now. That said, it’s not too late to architect a common approach to identity that would transcend protocols and make it seamless for people to connect with each other despite the underlying protocol – Sort of like how a common email namespace meant you could send and receive email regardless of whether your email server used POP3 or IMAP.
