@bitflipped I never meant that Mastodon created webfinger, I meant that they added a common implementation that we (activitypub implementations) use for addressing. Did AP define webfinger addressing?

@dansup Mastodon implemented webfinger and used it for what it was designed to be used for. It may have popularised it more, but I wouldn't say it was "contributed" by Mastodon any more so than the other specifications that Mastodon uses was.
