These are the reasons I won't use social login on my site: - There are people out there who do not have a social media account. - Many of those people that do have one don't want to "share" their information with said social media account. - This is a bit political, but I deeply believe that we, as developers, have a responsibility to our user-base. This responsibility includes but is not limited to user freedom and the ability to be anonymous if they desire that freedom. - You are depending on the whims of another corporation, and a corporation that, by all historical evidence, won't be around or popular ~two years from now. Users delete and abandon accounts, now what? - I think that, ultimately, it depends on your site and your use. For example, I want to promote anonymous discussion because I feel that this will create more honest discussion. Although there is a bit to be said about enforcing real names as an implied moderation tool, I put further weight on anonymity if the user chooses so.
