I’m hesitant about whether to enable this or not. Context: migrating a rather large community of non-tech-savvy people from Facebook. I’m sure it would help a lot to have Facebook login **but** if it breaks a lot if may be worse than not having it to start with. Also, what happens if a person’s facebook account gets suspended? (Asking because that happened to me this summer – does that disable access to Discourse too?) And how easy/nightmarish is it if at some point I decide to disable Facebook login?
