If we have a social media login feature for this forum, more people can communicate easily.

I see the script is available for free:

If forum.biblepay.org is the main way to discuss topics, social login will allow people to register more easily.

Due to having fractional sanctuaries tied to the username of the forum, and, knowing that we have been the target of attacks (that attached the original pool before) Im not willing to compromise the security of the forum server.

Each new user can still communicate by creating a forum account manually.

Additionally I dont personally trust the social media cloud stored services or data completely either, nor do I trust the single sign on data that is passed between the social media server and OneAll login's server.

It might be possible to add a separate SSO option to foundation.biblepay.org in the future, once we grow to more accounts.

This is going to be fulfilled in unchained.biblepay.org.

Users will now use their public wallet key to log in (and will be automatically logged in when they arrive).

No need for a normal web account anymore.

However we dont integrate with "normal" social media sites...
