RE: Hive Authentication Services - Announcement and Proposal

in HiveDevs3 years ago (edited)

So, instead of talking to Hive Keychain the apps would need to talk to HAS? Is this a simplification of the messaging part? In the end, we would still need Hive Keychain to be installed and populated with our keys.

Anyways, great work.

Thank you @ervin-lemark

Yes

Is this a simplification of the messaging part?

To be honest, no. But that's not what the project aims to improve.

In the end, we would still need Hive Keychain to be installed and populated with our keys.

Yes, but you will have to do it only once and will stop disseminating your keys on multiple devices/browsers

For some, HAS may be irrelevant.
But for those like me who connect from several devices (multiple desktops, mobile, tablet) or who wish to be able to use a public computer (with no Keychain extension installed, fear of even typing you key, or even no key at hand), it's more than an interesting solution.

I see. thank you very much for your explanation.

Good luck with the project and implementation.

Me, jumping to the proposals site to vote for it :)

Thank you for your support 🙇
