If you want to throw your money into a pit, there's a lot of alternative pits available out there. Happy to share my bank account, then at least one of us gets use out of it.

> You can add email/password and passkeys, but removing social logins entirely is a conversion killer. Every one of those auth flows hits American servers. The silver lining: Hanko, a German identity provider, handles the auth layer itself, so at least your user management and session handling stay in Europe, even if the OAuth flow touches Google or Apple.

You can at least put "Sign in with Spotify" first before Apple/Google - they have social login. I've even seen apps that have nothing to do with music offer it as an option.

In what way is Spotify better than a Google / FB login? Isn't it the same kind of shitty?

Interesting! I will think about the Spotify thing. I will pass on your bank account for now, thank you.

There must be some alternative European social logins, I know Seznam (of mapy.cz/mapy.com fame) has one: https://vyvojari.seznam.cz/oauth/doc?lang=en

		Problem is that there's no point in adding it unless a sizeable number of people using it, and Spotify is the only European one I can think of where that's the case. Seznam clearly isn't unless potentially a cz-only service - no idea how popular it is there. Delivery Hero is really big and EU but too fragmented. Maybe Wise should add social login, I think Paypal has it.
