#discovery

Describes a new level of ability, confidence, or personality trait that someone has newly discovered or activated in themselves — borrowed from video game achievement terminology. "Unlocked" implies a previously inaccessible quality has now been fully accessed, often through experience, challenge, or personal growth.

“She took one improv class and suddenly confidence was fully unlocked.”

An open protocol (RFC 7033) for discovering information about people or resources using a simple HTTPS URI. WebFinger lets you look up who owns an account like acct:user@site.com and retrieve their public profile, keys, or social links without centralized login.

“The federated app used WebFinger to resolve the user's identity before sending them a message.”
