"we'll send a login link to your email" is so bad.

Coinkite?
this is how most new startups do logins these days. security of the entire internet is dependent on the security of gmail at this point
Drives me crazy, especially if you're using multiple browsers and multiple devices with various levels of privacy/security features enabled across them
yes, we need "sign in with Bitcoin" or "sign in with Nostr" 😎
I like using bitwarden to safeguard my keys and passwords

My pet hate.
What if my email is really my email?
I remember they used to send through snail mail .. no really ..
Even on an ideal platform for something like that, it still always ends up as a hack
Alby?
but is it really so bad when the owner of the email address can reset passwords at will anyways?
Yes, because it forces me to open another tab and wait a minute until the email arrives and I can login.
Not to mention that it makes me see all the emails I hadn't seen I had received since the last time I had opened Gmail 5 days ago.
hm, desculpa but you failed to address the point. lose your key -> lose your account. Whereas with typical e-mail based accounts you forget your pw -> reset your pw
it’s the digital “key under the doormat”
Its better than a password
And 2fa to your cell number
