> Stratechery, powered by Passport, uses this type of scheme (click link OR type in OTP), which is still shifting annoyances onto end-users to free developers from implementing passkeys, but at least has a bit more of an appreciation for end-users.
With Stratechery, once you get to the website with the magic link, I can then copy the authenticated podcast RSS feed to Overcast and the authenticated RSS feed for the articles to NetNewsWire.
Those subscriptions are then synced to Overcast and NNW on my iPad and Mac via iCloud.
Each podcast RSS link is personalized and you go to the show notes page and click on the link to Manage your account. It will take you to the website using the embedded browser where you can manage your subscription and get access to the various feeds.
Speaking of Overcast, even though its doesn’t create a username and password by default, you can create one. But it’s only to access the web version of Overcast.
- gepeto42 2y agoYeah the Stratechery implementation for podcasts is great. The more annoying thing is each of them has its own domain and requires logging in, if you don't know you can dig into Stratechery.com. I would prefer if I could login to it with a passkey or username+pwd, but it's a much better system overall than just dropping an email link.
- scarface_74 2y agoOnce you subscribe to one of the podcasts, you can choose the “Manage your account” link from the podcast notes and choose the “Delivery Tab”. It will give you all of the links to all of your podcasts. I did this from the “Dithering” podcast notes https://imgur.com/a/ThbTaly https://imgur.com/a/ThbTaly
