I don't understand why is there not more competition / options in the BaaS area. User management is stable, almost boring functionality required by every single product.

When talking about user management, are you referring to StormPath which was bought by Okta?

I think it is just that they are the only ones on the list.

AuthO is a stand-alone service, but aws (Cognito) and Firebase are also in this space. I'm sure there are more I'm not familiar with.

This is cool. After skimming a few profiles of folks I know and read mood detection is questionable but the "Topics of interest" is spot on.

The mood detection may as well be RNG.

I have an even better way to identify who is an expert on HN. Say "It's silly that X still isn't a thing." If X is a thing, you'll get ten people telling you why you're wrong within ten minutes. Example: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17941772

You'll have to trade some karma for the answer though.

Well I had to go look up myself out of curiosity

"youtube, everything, video, times, data, issues, software, experience, companies, point"

Its not entirely wrong, but I don't know what "point", or "everything" means honestly
