๐ย = app password

ย = oauth ... SORTA *
* By "sorta" I meant that it opens specifically a Bluesky Oauth path which means that it can't be used to log in with another PDS. I have accounts with Blacksky, Eurosky and others BUT because of the choices made here, it looks like I can't use those.
I know it's possible to get this right in a decentralized manner that allows for alternate PDSs but I don't know what resource to point people to in order to correct this (I know https://semble.so/ has done it correctly if anyone needs an example.)
So some work has to be done a lot of places still for there to be less reliance on App Passwords.
