1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen.
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

further forensics as to why I could not get access to post a comment on a .com website blog when GitHub/Giscus did its unexpected two-step hypnotic flipparoo ...
0) note I have a GitHub account. I can log-in, but do have to get an email sent and enter an access code. I consider this intrusive since I only want read-only access to content.
1) the blog author is using the Giscus demon for comments
2) the demon is using the most extreme form of OAuth to try and get a claw into my universe.
3) I use MS and Google, and other sites that use OAuth: never seen a log-in dialogue that uses "act on your behalf" as a permission you must grant.
I retract any perhaps defamatory remarks about GitHub in my precious message.
The web, and life, are, after all, as Ahura-Mazda said, a constant war between good and evil, light and dark. And, perhaps we are, as the Vedic sages said, in the final phase of the cosmic cycle, the Kali Yuga, the age of darkness just prior to apocalypse,
If I could, I would offer magical help to GitHub, but, I shave with Occam's Razor, and the one shaman/sorcerer I knew here in Thailand is now fully booked with hi-so clients from all over who give hin cars, and tv's, and gold jewelry ... out of my league.

Okay, I want to leave a comment on a blog article: I have to use GitHub to login (strange): I have to have a security code emailed to me to login by GitHub (annoying). GitHub sends me to "Giscus"  where I cannot login unless I agree to allow GitHub Apps to act "on my behalf," and other unnatural acts.Quote: Authorizing GitHub Apps
When does a GitHub App act on your behalf?
To what extent can a GitHub App know which resources you can access and act on your behalf?
You can authorize a GitHub App to allow an application to retrieve information about your TitHub account and, in some circumstances, to make changes on GitHub on your behalf.
This is where "Open Source" has ended-up ?

Open source means you can do it yourself.
I was that paranoid. It's paying off with every headline from Kent.

I thought it meant "someone has done it for you already."

That's what they do; hanging around a real CPU.
I've yet to meet a developer who is seriously about apps on phones. Given the UI's, I think most of it is "written" by some form of.. Acrobat Player.
I for one, don't touch them.

 Perhaps they are using the OAuth[^] protocol ... Other sites even do not ask users for permission

I think you are correct: [^].
