Hi!
I've implemented Google Sign-In functionality for your SocialEcho app. The feature is now complete with:
✅ Google Sign-In buttons on login/signup pages
✅ OAuth 2.0 backend integration
✅ Account linking for existing users
✅ Automatic user registration
✅ Maintains your moderator role system

I'm pushing a pull request now. Please review and accept it when you can!

The setup guide is in GOOGLE_OAUTH_SETUP.md - you'll just need to add your Google OAuth credentials to get it working.

Thanks! 🚀
