@silverpill@mitra.social @mariusor@metalhead.club ughhhhhhhh. So that's what the "multibase" thing is.... There's ANOTHER spec (https://www.w3.org/TR/cid/#multibase-0) that says that the first character of the string specifies which encoding it uses because it can be different (but not for this FEP). Amazing format. Very convenient to debug. After that change, it turns out that the RSA key is encoded as "the weird Misskey format" that Java can't parse natively, but I already have the code to handle that at least.
