@maloki Something tells me #Discourse doesn't have an #OpenID plugin, because OpenID is too good and federated to be supported by capitalists.
Jeff Atwood also said this incredibly stupid piece of garbage in a thread, showing his immense ignorance of the benefits of federation (maybe I _don't_ want to give out my email address!!! that's the whole POINT!!!):
»The main broken assumption in openid was failure to associate email with user identity. Without email, we have no way to reach users.» source: https://meta.discourse.org/t/openid-login-to-meta/16115
Our great friend @strk@brusio.pallamondo.net in the !fediverse has joined that discussion too and obviously there's still no properly federated (arbitrary enduser choice of authorization) login solution.-
