The latest change comes after several delays to find an alternative for its Chrome browser

    Are there any methods of saving login and session data without the use of cookies? Because if Google killed cookies and I had to log in every single time I wanted to use something: I would stop using everything because of the inconvenience.

      The plan was only to kill off third-party cookies, not first-party so being able to log into stuff (and stay logged in) was not going to be affected. Most other browsers have already blocked or limited third-party cookies but most other browsers aren’t owned by a company that runs a dominant ad-tech business, so they can just make those changes without consulting anyone.

      Also, it looks like there might be some kind of standard for federated login being worked on but I haven’t really investigated it: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/FedCM_API
