Hey HN, I’m Dick Hardt[1][2][3], and I’m the founder of Hellō. Hellō is a new paradigm in Identity as a Service that empowers the user, simplifies development, and has a much lower cost structure. If you are building a new app, Hellō is faster (minutes) and cheaper (free) than the alternatives. https://www.hello.dev/docs/comparison/ https://www.hello.dev/docs/comparison/ ... especially if you are building with Next.js, Express, or Fastify and using our Quickstart which removes all the manual configuration so that you are running locally in a minute, and can be deployed fully configured a minute later. We posted about our co-operative approach on HN last year https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33177705 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33177705 Since then we have added support for Discord, GitHub, GitLab, Mastodon, and Twitter. If you are on a mobile device, you can enroll a passkey for future logins on that device. On the desktop, you can scan a QR code to login with your phone. We expect you have more questions. https://www.hello.coop/pages/approach.html https://www.hello.coop/pages/approach.html describes: - Our approach - How the cooperative works - How we’ll fund Hellō with smart contracts - Our guiding tenets - How we protect people’s privacy - Our architecture Thanks for reading and trying!
