Majority of apps are B2C apps, they don't need any of this.

All you need is Apple and Google Oauth.

If you are just starting out its probably a good idea. Think about the use case when google bans either your app or bans your app user?

  • Then your business is entirely screwed anyway because you've just lost half the market

    At least to me it sounded very much like they were talking about mobile.

It depends on your use case.

If you are a B2C app, you are probably more concerned about:

- social providers (Apple and Google being the big ones, but others could play a role--FB or Tiktok for example)

- easy registration (but not too easy, you want to avoid bot spam)

- self-service account management (updating profile fields, consents [CCPA, GDPR, others], resetting passwords

- single sign-on between your apps (if you have multiple)

- language support (for your backend, and mobile/web front end)

- cost

- possibly MFA, possibly passkeys
