Third-party-apps Memes

So you're telling me that to "connect" my LinkedIn account, I need to literally hand over my LinkedIn email and password like I'm giving away the keys to my digital kingdom? Nothing says "totally legit and not sketchy at all" like a third-party app asking for your raw credentials instead of using OAuth like every other service that respects your security. The absolute AUDACITY to mark this as "RECOMMENDED" while simultaneously offering a Chrome extension as "TEMPORARY" is sending me. Like, yeah bro, just casually type your password into our form—what could possibly go wrong? LinkedIn's security team is probably having a collective meltdown seeing this UX disaster. OAuth exists for a reason, people! It's 2024, not the Stone Age of web authentication.
