Consensus in the security space is that passwords are really bad. So many products are migrating away from passwords to magic links/passkeys.

- andyjohnson0 6mo agoIt seems to me like magic links are just off-loading the auth problem to email. If magic links become increasingly common then email† account access increasing becomes a single point of vulnerability/failure. And email providers obviously can't use magic links for auth. I dont know what the solution is. † or IM services
- NoahZuniga 6mo agoWell, password practically always has reset my password emails. So you have the "off-loading" problem either way.
