    Why did you stop officially supporting Persona? Just lack of use?
    • jamest 12y ago
      Mozilla, the corporate backer of Persona, decided to end new feature development on it because of low adoption. Because of this, and very low usage numbers on our end, we decided to remove support.

  Great news Rob. FYI, you have a typo at https://www.firebase.com/docs/ios/guide/user-auth.html https://www.firebase.com/docs/ios/guide/user-auth.html, in the Swift example of "Monitoring Authentication", you need to change "user" to "authData". Keep up the good work.

    Thanks for the heads up! We'll get that fixed right away.

  Nice! Is this already integrated with $firebaseSimpleLogin (angularfire)?

    Not yet, though we will do this soon.

  Is single sign on support for sub domains coming soon?
