If there is one practice that I'd like to see more encouraged, it would be for websites to start giving other forms of account verification beyond "we will send you an email". Zoom bought keybase, why couldn't push for a "login with keybase"?
Why can't sites send a link via matrix/xmpp/whatsapp/signal message? The only service I've used so far doing it is njal.la.
