"It’s time to use the password reset link again, which at this point is basically your login button."
This actually is not a bad idea. For rarely used sites I might as well just make something up that is impossible to guess and that I will never remember, and then just use the reset link every time.
- r0muald 11y agohealthchecks.io follows this pattern and it works really well: you just get an email with a login URL. No passwords are involved.
- s_kilk 11y agoI did something like this with http://nightchamber.com http://nightchamber.com, where your 'login' is just a unique URL. It's a fun idea, but it only works when the stakes are low (which they are for nightchamber, it's not like there's anything useful in the account anyway). I sure as hell wouldn't want paypal or amazon using that kind of scheme though.
