Why do you require a sign in/sign up in the first place? My ad blocking is configured to disable all that crap and I don't make accounts unless I really want whatever is behind it (which is exceedingly rare). On the other hand, I'm the only one I know personally who does not have a Facecrook account and when I tell people they're the product they just stare at me with doll eyes. shrug
- quanticle 11y agoAn account of some sort is the only way for a website to store state about you, most notably for authentication/permissions. Do you have a better way of, for example, identifying whether I should be allowed to see a private Github repository or not?
- SwellJoe 11y agoMy website has: - Shopping cart for selling our software and support products. - Forums for discussing our software. Email notifications are available for users who want to follow threads. - Ticket tracker for reporting bugs and making support requests about our software. Email notifications are, once again, available for users to follow threads. - License manager, so that people who have bought our software can get the keys to download the software. How would you suggest we accomplish those tasks without having a sign-in, at all?
