In my opinion, the fact that the app encourages Owner key or Master password just makes this worse.

terrible! hive.vote is probably one the most used services on Hive and doesn't have keychain integration.

great job testing it! I never use hive signer, even though I never did this research, I never trusted it. and it's one of the oldest sign in options still accepted by all frontends?

Its on our list, to do a new auto-voter tool. Sometimes I wish we could clone ourselves to move faster through the pipeline - but "soon" we will look to at least give another option to the mostly abandoned (but it does work) hive.vote

Hive.vote is as much the problem here by not updating to using Keychain. I've always been dubious of hivesigner but that is shocking, time to sunset it we have a better, easier, safer way now.
