Email a login link or temp pw. Passwords gone.
- datavirtue 5y agoOk...so on to more inconvenient methods? Medium tried it. A real drag.
- numpad0 5y agoDepends on how often you’ll be logging in and out though
- shoto_io 5y agoI share accounts (legally) with friends and my wife. How are we going to log in separately?
- jbverschoor 5y agoForward the email ;-) Or just add an extra email to the account
- shoto_io 5y agoForwarding the email is not a good solution. I don’t want to be checking emails at all times just because someone wants to login somewhere. Adding an extra email account is not always possible. The option is not provided.
- thanhhaimai 5y agoMaybe I'm missing something. You're just replacing the "password" by asking the user to login their email. It doesn't move us any closer to a "no password" world, unless there is also a proposal on how to make email password-less?

- bananamerica 5y agoHow do you login to your email?
- martin_a 5y agoMagic text message with an 8-digit code. ;-) For anyone thinking about it: Please don't make it happen.
- lukebennett 5y agoWhat if you are logging into something on a device that doesn't have your email on it? So called magic links are an absolute nightmare.
