The problem with magic links is that it makes your email address a single-point-of-failure. It's also a rather inconvenient workflow having to switch to another app or webpage.
- judge2020 8y agoEmail is still the biggest single point of failure for almost every account, excluding things like Apple with 2FA and (good) banks, even without magic links being a thing. I do agree that it's inconvenient to have to switch to another tab/window whenever you want to log in though, this is a problem solved with password manager browser extensions.
