Passkeys would be a UX with less friction than OAuth. Both could be used, but if choosing one, I’d go with passkeys.
I did a passkey implementation in Flask recently, it was pretty good.
Even so I’m not real sure if passkeys make all that “log in with
existing account
” stuff obsolete or what…
“Log in with Mastodon” could be cool. I don’t feel the need to have Google associated with anything in any way, even if very minor.
Can you elaborate?
I’m not sure there’s much to elaborate on, sorry. I just don’t like Google’s dominance online, and I consider anything that contributes to it to be a bad thing.
It’s purely value based, I’m sure the functionality would be useful for some.
As much as I dislike Google, that option would definitely help wider adoption
OAuth support would be great as it would allow existing Mastodon communities launch a piefed for their members!
@rimu SSO with LDAP support would be great so installing with other fedi apps you can all use one login. Also maybe keycloak
I would rather have a login which is compatible with many providers so rather a specific protocol like one of OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0, and/or SAML.
