Do you mean here on meta? You can’t log in here on meta via Google?

Hello.
I am facing Social Login /auth/failure problems that described very clear in the following screenshots. I don’t know if these are bugs of the new Latest 2.4.0.beta3 or not. Does any-one have solutions to get rid of troubles? Many thanks in advanced!

Okay we discovered the issue was with this commit:
[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/310a8ac2427978779c1bb31f71321bfb84688336](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/310a8ac2427978779c1bb31f71321bfb84688336)
It’s been reverted and we cut a new beta. If you upgrade your Discourses the issue should go away. We will investigate a new fix for Safari and cookies.
