Research direction

This issue is a discussion about assigning CNAMEs to feeds and names no repository files, tests, or implementation entry points. Read the linked Scripting News post and the contribution guidelines first; the issue provides no concrete change or acceptance criteria that define when the work would be done.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

A post on today's Scripting News, introduces the idea of giving CNAMEs to a feed that you view the same way you view a user's timeline on a twitter-like system such as Bluesky or Masodon. It's an idea that Bluesky has implemented and I have also advocated for many years, and developed around. Why invent a new identity system when the net already has a great one that's distributed and scales.

This is a place to comment or ask questions.

Please see guidelines for an idea of how this works. 😄
