@Lukasa Thanks for the extensive info! From reading over it, I believe that everything exists right now in order to be able to implement what you described. Hopefully when I...

Requests I believe uses urllib3. Urllib3 now has a MacOS-specific backend that is derived from the code in oscrypto, even though it doesn’t use it directly. I don’t believe it...

Heh, welcome to the world of debugging Windows APIs! In my experience you’ll need to look up the preceding API call and try to deduce what isn’t working properly. There...

I'm not familiar with this OpenSSL API - it sounds like it would return the same thing as the intermediates would, as long as the connection was verified?

On a high level, I'm trying to keep oscrypto as cross-platform as possible. The idea being that you can build something on top of oscrypto and it will be portable...
