Can't sign in without Facebook/Twitter.
Pass.
I wonder what the overlap between Facebook / Twitter / Netflix is and how much of the potential audience for a service like this is being neglected?
- bambax 14y agoDitto. I don't have a Facebook account. I kind of have a Twitter account but 1- I use it so little that I would have to look up my credentials and that's a pain 2- I will never sign into a new / unknown website with Twitter for fear that the website would start tweeting nonsense on my behalf.
- masterzora 14y agoWith regards to #2, doesn't Twitter auth include permissions so most non-spamming sites shouldn't even have permission to tweet nonsense on your behalf? Or am I misremembering? (As it turns out, the only time I ever used the Twitter auth was about a year and a half ago or so, I think.) With regards to #1, hilariously that's one of the problems that this sort of single-sign-on is supposed to solve.
