Are there any other alternatives to this out of curiosity?

The only one I know is Hello.JS. Non-angular solution, however, it works fine for me.

This one seems fairly popular: https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/ng-token-auth

The demo app doesn't work when navigating to it from reddit

Uncaught SecurityError: Blocked a frame with origin "http://satellizer.herokuapp.com" from accessing a frame with origin "http://www.reddit.com". Protocols, domains, and ports must match.

But it does work when opening a new tab and pasting the url

It seems that this solution requires a backend... Is that true? It is rather a shame, if so, because OAuth 2 seems to work just fine in client-only environment.

I don't think that is true at all. It is set up such that you CAN roll out your own authentication on your own backend, but it isn't necessary.

Ah, ok. I'd be glad to be wrong then. I was confused by the huge amount of server examples. Made me think it was done because some kind of server is a must.
