Here's a question. Love the app, but can I login to my account? I don't have a normal YC-account, but rather one through Open-ID with my Google Id.

- news-yc 16y agoThat's a good question, actually. I've never used OpenID so I have no idea what's involved in that, but I'll make a (mental?) note to look into seeing if it works (and probably fixing it) soon.
- extension 16y agoThe simplest way to do it is to open a browser view to the login page, then let the user do whatever and just watch the cookie store for the appropriate key. As soon as it shows up, close the browser and use that key in the app. This works for all the login methods.
- extension 16y agoYou can't login to an OpenID account through the app at present, but this is pretty easy to add. I may submit a patch for this some time soon.
