So I try to follow someone on another pump.io server, and it tells me I'm about to authorize the other server to do absolutely anything it wants to my account here. Thanks, but no thanks.lnxwalt@microca.st, Ian Young, Susan Pinochet likes this.

Show all 9 repliesYes. Receiving messages from other people means their servers need to write to your inbox, and currently the server has no more fine-grained access model than all or nothing.When you're authorizing other servers to do stuff with your account, it's because you're doing remote login.
Using a different client might or might not require such an authorization.
I can tell you that using Dianara you need to authorize the program, but then you have zero need to give permissions to any server.
It's probably the same for Pumpa, Impeller or Puma.

So, some notes end up repeated because utter lack of feedback makes me click Send repeatedly; other vanish into the aether. There's no way to delete notes, either. And it all moves so slowly, not to mention inconsistently.
With all due respect, pump.io is broken. Wake me up when we stop solving the wrong problem again and again.11 years ago via Identi.ca Web CC: Public

Just to see how it works, allow me to announce my latest game. It's a roguelike... for the ZX Spectrum. How retro is that?farvardin likes this.
