## <span style='color: #e0ac16;'><b>Authentication</b></span>
* As some of you already know. rootdo.com has a SSO/OIDC/OAuth-2.0 authentication system now. So, you can login with your <b>Google</b> or <b>GitHub</b> account to use certain services on rootdo.com ( e.g. https://flux.rootdo.com ).
* Other OIDC social logins will follow. Like <b>Twitch</b>, <b>X/Twitter</b> or <b>Discord</b>. And also an option to actually create an rootdo.com account. (it is disabled currently)
* Some services will require a login on https://auth.rootdo.com, so you need to actually login to use it. ( e.g. https://rl.rootdo.com )
* Other services like SearXNG, Send etc. will not need accounts or logins though.
* Some upcoming services will use this authentication system, so you can use every service on rootdo.com with just one single account of your choice.

## <span style='color: #e0ac16;'><b>Account creation on auth.rootdo.com</b></span>
* When you create a new account on https://auth.rootdo.com you will be forced to add a Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) method.
    * TOTP to use with apps like Aegis, Google Authenticator etc.
    * Hardware Key/WebAuthn with something like a YubiKey.

## <span style='color: #e0ac16;'><b>Services without OIDC/SSO</b></span>
* **Vaultwarden** will not have an OIDC login option until it is completely implemented ( https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/pull/3899 ) So, for now you still need an separate account for Vaultwarden.

## <span style='color: #e0ac16;'><b>Some more information</b></span>
* Privacy Policy and Terms of Service will be updated accordingly
