  • I understand your concern based on how corporations tend to run these days, but this is a lot of speculation. It’s good to be skeptical though.

    My guess is that they want to use a single account across more services unrelated to GOG, akin to the way google SSO works for gmail, YouTube, drive, etc. If the account is owned by a subsidiary that might not be possible for other subsidiaries to use the same account per data regulation rules.








  • You’re right about Apple. I hope the EU will force openness into the ecosystem. I’m also hopeful that open and free alternatives will continue to become more viable in terms of user experience; the switch to Lemmy from Reddit has been mostly painless.

    Thanks for the recommendations.

    Edit: Raivo is perfect for a dedicated Authenticator app in the Apple ecosystem. I’ll likely pay for Bitwarden instead as I want to support their great product.
