And also commented on from a Friendica account BUT

only possible on Streams for the moment, not on Hubzilla (magic auth / webfinger not working, something with the "acct:" layout that Friendica is using, I expect to able to backport a solution from Streams)
I suspect that Friendica has a bug in the HTTP Signing & request sending routine (*) which could potentially break all other parties that they use the magic authentication for - however, I wonder how they can use it currently if all verification of the signature should fail). When I fix it and use the same headers for signing & sending, verification works and remote auth works as well.

(*) some details: the routine is signing with the header accept = ['application/x-dfrn+json', 'application/x-zot+json'] but then sending on the wire with accept = (all). So verification fails and the remote auth is denied correctly - and any other system doing this should as well.
I trace that back to this commit on Friendica (dating from Apr 2022).
I'll create a bug report on Friendica for this.
