Auth.js: Vercel hired the lead dev and it stopped improving, leading to better-auth


Isn’t Vercel’s CEO an investor of Clerk? A direct competitor to all these FOSS auth libraries.


Yes, see: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45393382

Now better-auth had raised $5M so they can't undercut Clerky by too much or they'll fail


Time for Vercel to hire the lead dev of Better Auth next?


I bet Vercel buys better-auth and makes it a first party auth solution
