Comment on Google cancels plans to kill off cookies for advertisers
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 month agoAre there any methods of saving login and session data without the use of cookies? Because if Google killed cookies and I had to log in every single time I wanted to use something: I would stop using everything because of the inconvenience.

The plan was only to kill off third-party cookies, not first-party so being able to log into stuff (and stay logged in) was not going to be affected. Most other browsers have already blocked or limited third-party cookies but most other browsers aren’t owned by a company that runs a dominant ad-tech business, so they can just make those changes without consulting anyone.
Also, it looks like there might be some kind of standard for federated login being worked on but I haven’t really investigated it: developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/…/FedCM_API
