Describe the feature you'd like

It would be very good to have oauth support so that creators can self-host their content on Bookstack with a patreon system This will enable the supporters to access the content they have signed up for with appropriate permissions.

Thanks for the request @Salvora but I'm not keen on expanding our range of third-party authentication options out any further, at least without significant proven need.
Therefore I'm going to close this off as out of scope.

If you have some code/PHP know-how, we do provide a way to register custom/other oauth providers via our logical theme system: https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/blob/development/dev/docs/logical-theme-system.md#custom-socialite-service-example
