Is it safe to login to Reddit with Google?
Signing in with another service is never good for your privacy. Oftentimes, it'll grant a new site access to view more about you than you might expect—your profile, your social media posts, your name/age, etc.
Is sign in with Google safe?
Sign in with Google authenticates you uniquely for each service. So, even if there is a data breach on any of the sites or services you use, your personal information on all other accounts stays safe from hackers.
Is it safer to sign in with Google or Apple?
Sign in with Apple is not necessarily more secure
But if you're not using one, and you're instead using the same few passwords on every single site, Sign in with Apple is a much better option. Trusting all of your login information to a single company doesn't feel like the best idea, but it has upsides.
What does connecting Google to Reddit do?
When you connect a Google or Apple ID account with your Reddit account, Reddit only collects and stores the email address and externally generated ID that Apple or Google gives us. We won't collect other identifiable information you may have in those accounts such as your real name, contacts, emails, or anything else.
