Forgejo has a feature (that people usually disable) where you can bring your own openid connect url and use it to auth. So if I have my own OIDC provider I am self hosting, I can just use that to log in.
Most people only use OIDC for google and microsoft and whatnot but it’s very possible. I don’t realkly see what FedCM offers that OIDC doesn’t or can’t, or why we shouldn’t be adding features to the existing and popular OIDC instead.
This reminds me of the way that forgejo lets you feed it an arbitrary openid url, so you can log in with any service you want, including your own server.
Also, is this compatible with lemmy? The last time I tried fediverse (mastodon) login, it was with owncast, but it didn’t work with lemmy.
have you looked at solutions which emulate github actions locally?
https://github.com/nektos/act this is one of them but I think I’ve seen one more.
Github actions also has self hosted runners: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/concepts/runners/self-hosted-runners
What would you use if you had a choice?
There are many, I think. Like what other people have mentioned, sometimes the new standard is just better on all metrics.
Another common example is when someone creates something as a passion project, rather than expecting it to get used widely. It’s especially frustrating for me when I see people denigrate projects like those, criticizing it for a lack of practicality…
No, it doesn’t. The docs are confusing on this, but forgejo has two methods to enable oauth/oidc. One is to manually enable them, but there is a second, where people bring their own openid link.
The docs contain 3 things related to oauth:
