    How about not needing an account for things that don’t need accounts?

    I’ve just bought a Lego set for my nephew’s Christmas present and I couldn’t just check out with my credit card. No. I had to create a Lego account and join some sort of community thing with nickname, personal page and reward points systems and constant email spam. And of course two days after that I get informed that they were hacked. I can’t wait for the damn set to be delivered already so I can delete that account.

    A bunch of things add effort but also make sense. 2FA, etc… Fine. But why the fuck do I need to look so hard to find a login button now? Don’t you want me to login?

    Looking at you Mailbox.org. Go to main page, open side menu and look half way down this. No login button anywhere anywhere on the main page? WTF? Who decides these things? The login button used to be right there at the top and someone made the decision to move it.

    Shouldn’t we reboot the internet and do it right from scratch, without compatibility to some 1980’s limitations and without executing foreign turing-complete code?

    Passkeys aren’t actually bad, they just make the “remember my password” flow slightly easier and more secure.
