Hacker News Reader

Not really, I wanted to add a notification that may come up not even once a month (once every 6 month even) but when I saw the sign up I just closed the tab. But otherwise I'd have entered it.

i havent really thought about that aspect really. would social logins (including: twitter, github, maybe reddit) help? or would you rather see some registration process so passive you dont even notice? (like you start with creating the phrase and i ask for email anyway, why not send you a random pw then).

i cant do this userless as i am pretty sure this is against several anti spam restrictions.

Social logins would be worse.

Something passive I don't even notice would be fine, although getting an email "hey we just created an account for you" would be quite jarring as well.

I guess... If you frame it like "here is a token to change your settings" it'd be alright.

thanks a lot for your feedback. I really forgot that aspect, but i think i really could make a huge improvement in this point.

Feel free to ping me if you implement it :)
