No thank you. Their interface is nearly garbage when it comes to smooth writing and even worse, that they obligate users to create an account only through the options of their Google account or their Facebook account is simply unforgivable. It's bad enough that Ink itself almost certainly scans all compositions by users for data mining purposes, but to have to then also know that the whole process needs to be done through logins via these two giant personal information parasites is a whole second level of shitting on customers.
- tene80i 5y agoWhere does it say anything about creating an account via Google or FB? Or creating an account at all? (Except for on itch.io, which is a suggestion for hosting rather than Ink itself, and also doesn't seem to require Google or FB).
- helloworld11 5y agoI was obliged to open an Ink account for some text compositions a few weeks ago, and yes, the only way by which I was able to do so was through a Facebook or Google login. There was no other option.
- mattbee 5y agoThis is nonsense on toast. Ink is open source, and they run an instance of the editor etc so you can try it out and publish your own compositions (like Twine). It's a games company trying to make better storytelling tech, they're not data mining anything.
