Is your feature request related to a problem ?

Right now gotosocial cant communicate with likes of pixelfed and bookwyrm instances coz of http signature requirements.

https://github.com/bookwyrm-social/bookwyrm/issues/1179 https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/2935

Describe the solution you'd like.

I understand its is the best interest that the offending parties should be correcting the error however I was thinking should we also be thinking about a mode where these restrictions are relaxed. may be with admin toggle to allows for interactions with these instances.

Describe alternatives you've considered.

We already have open issues in pixelfed and bookwyrm

https://github.com/bookwyrm-social/bookwyrm/issues/1179 https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/2935

We dont have any more alterantive options.

Additional context.

Right now from a pixelfed or bookwrym instance i can connect with mastodon instances but not gotosocial instances. the requests are recieved (initial web finger) but next request onwards both softwares cant play well with us.
