Thanks for the feedback! We tried to keep the design as simple as possible to not clutter the interface. How would you improve the design? Are there any areas that are particularly badly designed?

(Ramamia developer here) We get some negative feedback about not having passwords. So I think the way we're going to approach this is allow people to use their instant login link anytime, so they can bookmark it, keep requesting it from the
