Ory.sh - Due to email verification (and also 2FA) mandatory, first login is not very smooth #158

I'm not sure there is much we can do, but I wanted to mention this to bring awareness.

From Zimfarm (or any other app) a registered user which did not already completed email verification is just returning "Unauthorized" to any authentication event. It is hence hard for the user to know he needs to go to his mailbox, realize he received an email, go to login.kiwix.org to verify his mail address, and then be presented with a second challenge which is that 2FA is mandatory.

Once everything is configured correctly on Ory.sh side, everything is smooth but the onboarding is rather hard.
