Basic

- [Discord](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-discord-login-for-discourse/127129): for Anki server members
- [GitHub](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-github-login-for-discourse/13745): For Anki/Ankidroid devs
- [Twitter](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-twitter-login-and-rich-embeds-for-discourse/13395) and [FB](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-facebook-login-for-discourse/13394) are meh, not really a need to have them

Standard

- [Google](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-google-login-for-discourse/15858): for AnkiDroid (Play Store) users
- [Apple](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-apple-authentication/171485): for AnkiMobile users
- [Single-sing-on](https://meta.discourse.org/t/setup-discourseconnect-official-single-sign-on-for-discourse-sso/13045) (SSO): for every AnkiWeb user
  - will be able to check user account in case of deck deletion more easily, send release updates via discourse or another warning for deleting decks in case the first email get flagged by Outlook

While SSO is overengineering, the others are great enhancements
