Description

Describe the Bug

Safari and Brave block popups by default. In Brave you can whitelist popup for each solid server used. The experience for users would be much better if login and logout can be achieved without leaving the app.

From Kee Siong:

"I haven’t figured out how to get into solidcommunity.au using Safari yet. I get around this by using Chrome. I think we need to find a way for the login page to work from Safari with minimal fuss, because that’s a big friction point for the nearly 985 million Safari users out there."

To Reproduce

  1. Open Exper app https://exper.privateinsights.au (or any ANU Solid app)
  2. Set server to pods.solidcommunity.au
  3. Click 'Login'

Expected Behaviour

CSS Login page loads
