Unless you're using PKC, you're completely handing off your identity to someone. The question is what's your threat model for having your identity taken from you. For me I've decided I trust DNS, because if it fails we probably have bigger problems. So email on a custom domain is as strong an identity as I require. I see a Gmail account as good enough for most people, but not for me personally.
Ideally I would like to see people hosting their own IdP servers from their laptops at home over something like ngrok but e2ee, but we have a ways to go for that.
Aside: given your background at Okta and ngrok, we have a lot of overlapping work. I'm curious of your thoughts on my LastLogin.io project?
