| Nov 5, 2012 at 1:48 | comment | added | wyc | @Tortoise So you prefer Twitter login? | |
| Nov 5, 2012 at 1:45 | comment | added | Tortoise | I don't have an inherent problem with their existence. I don't use them, because I'm a traditionalist who favors distinction between things, but I can see why people would like to. My problem is with sites that offer ONLY Google and (especially) Facebook logins, failing to account for the possibility that there's still someone left out there who hasn't turned over their entire life to one of these monopolistic corporations. | |
| Nov 5, 2012 at 1:43 | comment | added | wyc | @Tortoise What's the problem with Google and Facebook logins? It's better than filling a long form that even asks for your cat's name. | |
| Nov 5, 2012 at 1:34 | comment | added | Tortoise | Ugh, social logins. I've come to despise them, mostly because I've actually seen sites without an in-house login system: they only accept OpenID or, worse, Google or even Facebook logins. | |
