@thisismissem.social @divy.zone and I recently went through an exploration of how the browser can help you login to websites with atproto accounts. We recently presented to the FedID CG and here is a sneak peek in case you couldn't join! This is early but we'd love your input before we go too far!

The issue is, if I may say, also a marketing one. We need something akin to Sign in with your “Atmo” account (or any other nomenclature used everywhere) so every person who has no clue what a PDS is but has a Bluesky account will know what to do.

I think this is where @kandake.africa 's suggestion to allow a federation to control the messaging could play a role: bsky.app/profile/sgo....

Sam Goto@sgo.to

I did factor in your suggestion in the last snapshot of the explainer!! github.com/w3c-fedid/id... I think having `type` be a URL is a wonderful idea!

Oh cool! I won't pretend to have understood everything I read, but as long as we can nail the branding aspect, we'll be able to sell the benefits of an account on the atmosphere to a broader public.
