You can do that. It's your app, your rules. And doing that might be easier than setting up email/password authentication.
That said, whenever I encounter a site or app or service that only supports so-called social login I give it a pass. Mainly because I don't have an account with most (if any) of those kinds of services. I might be a weird outlier, but I'm sure I'm not alone.
- bnert 4y agoI thought I was the only one...

- highhedgehog 4y agoI agree 100% with you
- zquestz 4y agoI also avoid sites that only have social login. Don't think it is odd at all.
- Andaith 4y agoJust adding my voice to the chorus and adding that I too won't use apps that require a social login.
- webmobdev 4y agoWould avoid like the plague - nobody in their right mind should use such "social logins" as it not only leaks more of your personal data to these services but more so because if BigTech denies you access for whatever reason, you lose access to all internet accounts linked to such logins.
- ramtatatam 4y agoI'm in the same camp. Even though I still keep my google mail just in case I forgot to tell somebody I'm not using it anymore. Same with FB - I was kicked out after I refused to send FB a scan of my ID.. So service which does not allow me to log in with my own email would automatically rule me out.
- JohnFen 4y agoMe too. I have no social media accounts I could use, but if I did, I certainly wouldn't use them to log into anything other than that particular social media service.
- baggy_trough 4y agoI never use "social logins" because I don't know what the implications are. I feel like I do know for email/password.
