Ah, I see. The thing about Oauth2 is that you have to trust the site not to phish you, or you have to log in somewhere with some weird cross-domain cookie thing or whatever (or maybe not) but it just seems like a bit of a hassle, especially for the security-paranoid (like half of the people on this forum). It's not a bad idea for fediverse stuff, in fact a federated/decentralized identity system is essential for those services. But for little web-hosted toys? Nah.
I appreciate the offer to help me set stuff up. Honestly, for microsm.space and mobilegamedev.org I'm open to pretty much everything and want to make them useful and potentially drive traffic to them. I'm planning on installing Gitea on git.mobilegamedev.org, but virtual hosts are a pain that I don't fully understand, and Gitea being Go-based and a fork of Gogs makes it less of a miracle than, say, RocketGit. But RocketGit is AGPL'd and Gitea looks more user-friendly so I'll go with Gitea, even if the gits these days aren't as shiny as I'd like.
What other shinies can I add?
