    Oh okay, so does that mean that Lemmy is less secure and more prone to outsiders stealing login info, than with Mastodon? I ask as 0auth seems to be quite important based on some of the comments.

      It does not mean that lemmy is less secure, but yes, it means that malicious app developers will have a much easier time stealing login credentials because entering them inside the app is already the norm. However this is definitely a feature that can be added so it does not mean anything bad long term

        Thank you for explaining. :-)

        So that would mean that there are no 100% secure Lemmy apps, that do have 0auth or something to ensure that bad developers don’t steal login information?
