Is this a real question? If so, here’s a real answer:

GitHub is the single most widely adopted, developer-specific OIDC identity provider.

If it’s facetious, then WSL BABYYYYYY

Why does this need OIDC at all? Basic email + password account is like 1-2 prompts away.

I guess at some point developers will have to prove they're serious developers by exposing their GitHub profile.

Edit: it's part of your profile already, better vibe code some random ideas to farm some GitHub dev credibility.

I don't think a github profile (or any specific activity therein) should be a prerequisite for being considered a 'serious developer'.

▲ASalazarMX 4 hours ago | parent | next [-]

I am of the same idea. Requiring online, public repositories, specifically in GitHub, doesn't cover all developers. It covers many of them nowadays, so there's that.

Yeah, it strikes me as a very... Silicon-Valley-brained view of software development.

For example, I'm sure there's a scary-talented engineer working on fluid simulation algorithms for a major aerospace manufacturer, and they would be fired if their work-product ever left the corporate VPN. Meanwhile, their personal stuff is in a self-hosted solution.

It's built on laravel, email/pass/2fa/forget is all built in. GitHub auth only was a choice.

Because effective anti-spam account measures are not 1-2 prompts away.

How about ssh public keys

▲funshed an hour ago | parent [-]

It uses your GitHub public keys to authenticate so you can post from the CLI.

Maybe spam concerns, but your point remains valid.

▲saghm 5 hours ago | parent | prev [-]

And having those passwords leaked is probably only another 1-2 prompts away

Guess I am simply not invited to the party then.

Or I am not a developer after all.

Identity crisis intensifies

The dev in /dev/null is device, not developer. So you’re not a device but you can still be a developer.
