Problem description

To log into my GitHub account (as a contributer), an app-internal webview opens.
The user's default browser would be preferable:

Existing password managers or open sessions can be used
Users do not need to trust an additional app with the sensitive credentials

Possible solution

Open the default system browser for the Auth flow

Alternative solutions

I cannot think of other "solutions"

Additional information
