As someone who sometime struggles with doubt after a large decision, I found this really moving. Thanks for sharing!

Hey there! I'm one of the people behind this project.

Totally agree with the issue you've laid out. We don't want this to become a pure popularity contest.

When we choose the winners, we'll consider vote totals but also several other signals.

Thank you, I love this project. Tuple, too, for that matter.

I sit next to our support "team" pretty frequently :)

We've had a couple painful SSO integrations (when they were home-grown, as you correctly point out), but we've pretty much got the rough edges sanded down now. I don't think we've had a tough one in a while.

It helped to publish some short docs on it: https://tuple.app/sso_setup

Hi folks! Author here. Big fan of this topic, and happy to answer any questions you might have about it.

Also, the shameless self-promoter in me is required to let you know that we're hiring a Lead Web Developer: https://tuple.app/jobs/web-developer.

If our stance on the topic of SSO/security vs. profit appeals to you, please consider checking us out!

Thanks for putting the salary range in the webdev role! (I asked you to do so on Twitter :) ).

My question for you: do you think there are any other big, generic points of segmentation for SaaS consumers like SSO is? A few jump to mind:

* uptime SLAs (you mentioned this)

* data export/retention

* ???

I'm on record as saying that I think SSO will migrate down the value chain just like HTTPS did: https://twitter.com/mooreds/status/1481300034448760842 but am curious what will replace it.

Hi Ben!

Slightly off-topic: If you really want folks to click through to your job ad, you can't go wrong if you mention that the salary range is ~$150k - $200k :-)

Also changing the job description to software engineer, not web developer, may help. Quite a few colleagues wouldn't want to downgrade their title. :)

Hi HN! I'm one of the co-founders of Tuple and the author of this article.

Happy to answer any questions (and receive any criticism!).

If you think you might be a fit, we'd love to hear from you :)

Agreed. Coming next year.

Awesome, that's great to hear.

Pretty incredible to read this. Thanks for sharing!

Love this! Thanks for the suggestion.
