Always start with email signup first. Not the other way around. You just lost a ton of potential beta-testers and users on your HN moment.

Got it, We though Twitter & Facebook are a good way to get people easily onboarded and their details filled in effortlessly.

PS: For those afraid of any privacy issues, the permissions are very basic, we do only get your email, avatar and short bio.

Really looking forward to trying this out, but definitely need this first. Seems fine for users, but would rather not force my support team to log in with their social accounts.

We'll add email signup very soon, can you fill in this form so that we let you know https://haaash.typeform.com/to/IOrUUI . Thank you!

Social accounts are fine for consumer products but many people justifiably don't want to use them for business products. Keeping them separate is a key part of business hygiene.

For me, it's not about the privacy issues. It's that accounts tied to my personal social networks are much harder to transfer/remove/control.

We've put up this form https://haaash.typeform.com/to/IOrUUI for those who exclusively want to sign up with email. We'll add email sign up very soon and let you know. Thank you!
