I've just looked at some tutorials for Keycloak and Authentik and there's definitely a very steep learning curve for these two solutions. I feel like I need something a lot simpler to be able to fully grasp the concept.

What is the easiest solution for beginners to implement Sigle-Sign-On for their selfhosted services?

I think this might be on of those cases where the TUI is actually easier to understand than the WebUI. In the WebUI there are tons of terms I've never even heard before, but this actually looks kinda straight forward. Thanks!

Oh absolutely! I try to always start from cli and config files first personally so keycloak made a lot of sense to me. Good luck with whatever you choose.
