Its really stange seeing kanidm basically never mentioned in these types of threads dispite how perfect it is for selfhosting: great documentation, incredibly easy to get setup, easy to make a custom themed/setup auth page, lets users name themselves how they prefer instead of requiring "firstname lastname" (why does every service need a lastname when it never gets used?)

Authelia and authentik are cool but are way more complex then you need for authenticating a couple services and for me at least feel "bloated" for my usecase

    I think the no-nonsense, minimal hype and visual contribute to that. Also, the name didn't automatically conjure "authentication" like authentik/authelia/pocket-id does, so maybe people just gloss over it.

    I'll probably tried this over now that I'm aware. Thanks for sharing.
