It *was* clever that the keys are authorized by a field in the account. Seems like it could fetch the token itself by taking a password, but fine, whatever, I can understand not wanting to ask for a password. But you need a token *and* a pubkey (in the user-visible section of your account's header, even). That's kind of a pain. Seems like you could just get a bearer token and then use the bearer token as the password, so you only need one thing and just one step: ssh server ties to auth with that token, stores it if it works. You'd also not get the problem it currently has where you can only log in
> favourite $ID
I'm sure as hell not tryna type "favourite" instead of "favorite", and I'm not tryna type "favorite" instead of "like" and I'm not tryna type "like" instead of just "l".
It *is* a lot cleaner to just use the HTTP API instead of internal API calls and embedding the thing in the Pleroma server. This is really cool stuff overall, duponin is always doing fun stuff like this. I probably won't use it, too much of it is less comfortable than the existing BBS feature, but it is cool.
