There are lots of things that Duplicati could/should do, and it is entirely limited by what developers help.  
[[s3][minio] Feature request : authentication using OpenID #4199](https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati/issues/4199) is an open issue also asking for OIDC.

As a community project developed by volunteers, is that an offer to help solution? You sound technical.

[Jottacloud removed basic authentication, Duplicati can no longer connect #4697](https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati/issues/4697#issuecomment-1080587957) is my latest deep post which points out not only the technical but also the staffing challenge. There is hope, but it needs work. Anybody who knows authentication standards, C#, Python, Google App Engine, etc. is invited to help…

As with all Duplicati things, there is more demand for things than volunteer resources to provide supply. Even people helping on the forum, testing, reading/writing manuals (all not hugely hard) would help out.

You can keep an eye on the GitHub issue, and see if anybody jumps onto this hard. Any jumpers here?

Anybody know what this part of the Jottacloud Mar 25 tweet means? Asking experienced service users. Dealing with storage providers that sound like they don’t really want us there is just asking for trouble…
