@thisismissem.social @divy.zone and I recently went through an exploration of how the browser can help you login to websites with atproto accounts. We recently presented to the FedID CG and here is a sneak peek in case you couldn't join! This is early but we'd love your input before we go too far!

First, the happy case scenario, logging in to a website with your atproto account, say lealeft.pub. This is a good end state prompt: one that shows every atproto account you are logged in to (most users would only have one) and allows the user to select one.

Good question. I think the distinction here is that you are creating an account on leaflet (rather than logging in to one). Not sure if that's a meaningful distinction but that was the intent. Wdyt?

when I use Leaflet, I don't think of using it as requiring me to have to create a "Leaflet account", but instead that Leaflet uses my "Atmosphere account" (my DID and handle) to identify me, and can associate data with that identity if it wants (like profile information or settings)

Ah interesting. Got it, so like SSO?
