  • I tried it before authelia, and it felt like an unfinished product. Nice looking, but there were weird issues, like you could create projects (or apps? i don’t remember) through the UI, but then if you wanted to delete them you had to use the API. The hierarchy of resources also didn’t really feel intuitive to me. But that’s just personal preference. I’ve been testing out authentik today and I really like it. I like that the UI works great, but there’s also a terraform provider to manage things declaratively.



  • I like the “supportware” term, I can apply that to a few other tools (airbyte, teleport). I ended up setting up authentik today and it went really smoothly. So far I like it a lot, so hopefully the full enshittification process doesn’t happen soon. Even though right now I just want to use it for my own self-hosting purposes, I’m also interested in potentially using it for work. We have a few hundred thousand users and AWS cognito is getting pretty expensive.
