β€œTo put it in other words β€” it is very easy to put a working social login functionality on a website, but it is very hard to do it correctly,” Balmas tells Dark Reading.
This once again shows that OAuth2 is not a hammer for every nail and sometimes invites more complexity than you are able to deal with - even on a scale like booking. Which is one of the reasons Kratos uses a different model πŸ€— hackerman also wrote a blogpost about when OAuth2 usecases and when it makes sense to implement: https://www.ory.sh/oauth2-openid-connect-do-you-need-use-cases-examples/ (ps: weird they only use OAuth in the article, I do hope they are using 2.0 though πŸ˜„ )
