Visiting my parents for Christmas, I helped my mom set up her new win10 laptop. (and she's real good with computers for someone her age whose job wasn't in IT) Lesson here for anyone wanting to use emails for usernames: Make it really clear that you're asking for the email as an ID, as the username. Otherwise this will incline people to enter the same password as their email because they think they're asked to log in. Even if they know it's important not to re-use passwords over different logins. To make this anecdata N>1, I teach computer stuff to kids (ages 8-12, generally) and they tend to make the same mistake. (working on semi-public computers, I am glad I get to teach them about Private Windows: "if it's not your computer, only enter your password on a window that shows the little mask/sunglasses-guy")
