   @dansup Wouldn't that then be a single point of failure?

   Unless, I guess, you're using something like SOLID data pods.

     @dansup Hope that makes sense to you. TLDR: use the browser’s secure password store to save the real server name so that the user can make their own choices about how or whether they backup that data off device. Don’t get into the business of storing credentials for other services/servers. You don’t even need a real server for this technique.

     @dansup more of a follow up question…

     Are such semi-centralising hubs inevitable as tools for smoothing over the UX issues of decentralisation?

     I’m personally betting yes.
