Comment (by strk):
This is an example of WHY it would be useful for OSGeo to be an OpenID
provider:

In case the screenshot doesn't work: this is matrix.org now REQUIRING you
to login by showing a passport provided by one of the following companies:
Microsoft, Meta, Google, Apple, GitLab (not sure if GitLab was bought by
some big player yet).
Exposing our own OpenID provider we could be recognized as a "passport
provider" for users, and our userbase could connect to services (like
matrix.org) by showing up their OSGeo passport...
