Lol wut? you get all of your auth data in your own db in 1 cli command. You are not tied to any on db provider. On top of that you get hundreds of auth features like oauth providers (I use it to allow users to log in via google, apple, github) and the best part it's free. Not saying Supabase and Clerk are bad, but they cost money. With better auth you pay exactly $0 for all of this.

I’m setting up a new system (Auth for user facing app, client facing dashboards, internal tool usage, etc.)… it has anonymous app users who can be upgraded to real users upon Auth, organizations, multi-tenant capabilities, all kinda of sign in options… haven’t written a single line of special code this is all handled by included plugins and defaults. It just works and I own all the data.

It must have come a long way then -- I'm integrating it into a new product and it is absolutely fantastic. It just works.
