login's Issues

Give users the ability to opt out of certain scopes

Some scopes are ofc useless to disable, like chat:edit or chat:read but giving users the ability to disable title-setting or w/e, while at the same time providing a way to describe each scope and how it's used seems reasonable.

I'm thinking maybe below the "Log in" button there's a drawer thing users could press to expand a list of scopes we ask for, and provide a checkbox for the ones that would be deemed "optional".

Scopes I can think of right now that I would deem optional are:

• whispers:read/edit
• user:read/manage:blocked_users
• channel:manage:broadcast
• clips:edit
• user:edit:follows
