RE: HiveSigner, Hive Keychain, HiveAuth or Enter Your Key On A Site??? (later entry: PeakLock - see update inside about that oversight)

The multiple ways of signing in are a pain in the ass. I wish everyone would agree to just one - the original way :)

Sort:  

Honestly just one way would be way too centralized. But one way to use ALL the ways, thats a good goal and its been met, evidently or so I learned today in other comments here on this post, with the Hive All In One Auth tool. I am investigating it as we speak.

That's not centralization. It's more doors going to the same place and more chances of vulnerability. You also have risks due to trust as you don't know could potentially be a bad actor hoping you'll input keys.

All we can do is rely on the fully open source options so they can be 100% publically validated as non-invasive and non-data-retentive.

That's a whole lot of work for most people considering thousands are getting scammed by bad actors in the sector every day
