For context, I'm building a full-stack app using React Native, Django, and PostgresQL.
Do you use auth providers? I've looked into Auth0 (which seems to be pricey) and ORY but I'm not sure what best fits my use case.
I've seen that building your own auth can be time-consuming and I'd like to spend less time integrating auth and more time working on other app features.
I'm considering using Firebase strictly for user authentication because I think it would be the simplest, but I'm not sure if this is a good idea.
For people who have experience building their own auth, using providers, or any other approaches, what would you recommend and why?
I found the 3rd party providers to be just one more hassle. The exception being larger systems that were already running on AWS/Azure and there I used the provider service - Cognito for AWS for example.
