Getting 500: Server Error Whoops, something went wrong on our servers. When I try to authenticate

Hi - I'm digging into this, I can see it in the logs and am trying to work out why - it looks like an issue in the OAuth process for some users only

fwiw I'm getting it too

Thanks - I'm trying to debug it but it seems very inconsistent. We had a clear hour and then it's restarted again!

do you even need to oauth? can't your just accept a text input with a GitHub username? since it's all oss contributions?
