That's fascinating! I mostly don't use "sign in with X" anymore since my password manager flow is pretty fluid at this point (so making a password is easy and secure). I guess for the many people who are less comfortable with password managers, a 1-click sign up/in is very useful.
Thanks for sharing!
- osigurdson 2y agoHaving a password manager plug-in thing installed on every web browser that I might use seems pretty arduous to me (not to mention I also then have to trust the plug-in). The fact that LastPass for example had a major breach doesn't help either.
- corytheboyd 2y agoTo each their own I guess… I find it insanely easy to install the bitwarden plugin. All the plugins sync through my Mozilla account anyway. Definitely do not use Lastpass.
- lygaret 2y agoI'll add my 2c, and say that even with a really fluid password manager flow, "signin with X" is usually a 1-click entry (possibly 2 for scope authorization), rather than a signup form + leaving the site to click through an email verification. I'd much prefer 1password to do it's "you last signed in with github here" popup, than just have easy new passwords created.
