My other annoyance lately is companies that don't let you set a password. It's either passkey only (which I'm not sold on, yet), or "we'll email you a login link". Great, now I have to wait for the email to show up, click the link, hope it doesn't expire if I get distracted while waiting, and then also delete your emails, sometimes multiple times a day?
What a shit tier authentication mechanism.
"Login via email code" is also a nightmare on Android. Android regularly kills any processes that are not in the foreground, so I recently went through a whole ordeal trying to login to the MLB app: it requires me to type in an email code, I switch to my email client, get the code, go back to the MLB app, and the page reloads (because it was killed in the background) requiring me to request a NEW email code. I tried this literally five times, going as fast as I could; it seems like it was just deciding to kill the browser process as soon as I switched to the email client, no matter what. This is mostly Android's fault but it's insane and I don't get why I don't hear people complain about this more often
I despise this. Slack keeps doing this even though I have a password and 2FA configured.
Vercel won't even let you set a password.
