In brief, Persona offers a dramatically better privacy model, developer experience, and user experience. The protocol is decentralized and designed from the ground up to be built into the browser natively.
Re: Downvotes: It's a pretty common question that we (the Persona team) have clearly not done a good enough of a job of communicating. I imagine a lot of folks here are just tired of the repetition.
- iSnow 14y ago>It's a pretty common question that we (the Persona team) have clearly not done a good enough of a job of communicating It would be nice if you created a example Persona-enabled web application (some lines of gulp PHP or heck even a VirtualBox image), push it to bitbucket/github/whatever and link to the repo from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/persona/ http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/persona/. Does not need any functionality, just a login screen using Persona and a "it works" page you reach after logging in. And maybe sample ID provider code too. Extra cookie points if the "it works" page explains the structure of this Proof of Concept application and how the Persona protocol was used. This way, a curious developer could pull the source, have a Persona-enabled template app and his own ID provider up and running in minutes and could play around with it, evangelize it in his organization etc. If it "feels" right, said developer would read the docs afterwards to move beyond the Proof of Concept.
