This was an interesting (but disgusting) podcast: https://changelog.com/friends/78, with 3 main points:
- there is no "default familiar pleasant normie-friendly" way to log in, so Nostr shouldn't try to pander to this nonexisting standard.
- the people in the podcast even talk about the risk of centralizing all your passwords on 1Password, but they cannot even consider the possibility of Gmail having access to all your internet accounts or even cutting you out from your own account without notice, which are things that can and have happened.
- there is some shilling of passkeys, but no one touches the issue of what happens if the user loses or breaks their phone, and then suddenly they lose access to all their accounts everywhere.
Don't listen or you may vomit.
