might be dumb q, but does it work well with Supabase Auth?

not at all dumb, i had same qtn. i assume its a direct replacement, and there should be some pros and cons, so what i'd really want is a knowledgeable person doing comparisons along the 4-5 major axes that people should really care about axes i care about 0. does betterauth have google/twitter/github oauth? (i assume yes but hey its basic) 2fa support? Activedirectory/Okta/Workos/other team management level auth? 1.…

imho they should release a migration guide

This looks really exciting. I'm sold. I'm planning to migrate to BetterAuth from Firebase Auth in the next few months, how does the two compare? Personally I'm happy with Firebase (migrated from Workos which was so frustrating and lacking in many aspects, or in other words a huge mistake when picking), not so happy about the vendor lock and the vendor itself.

What issues did you encounter with WorkOS? I'm currently evaluating it and would love to avoid repeating knowable mistakes.
