Why the fuck are so many software projects dependent on email? Why do we need this!? It’s infuriating.

- It’s a communication tool
- It’s a unique identity
- You can have more than one
- It is platform agnostic
- It’s anonymous
That’s a fairly nice set of attributes.
What would you propose instead? I’m not arguing or anything just genuinely curious what it would be replaced with. Maybe some kind of cryptographic identity, I guess?

It’s a communication tool
So is BlueSky
It’s a unique identity
As is 4093rnbgv3q09vn032
You can have more than one
More than one what? Email? How about zero?
It’s platform agnostic
There are a thousand platform-agnostic communication methods.
It’s anonymous
Email? LOL absolutely not.
It’s transferable
It’s only transferable if you use your own domain, which the vast majority are not doing.
What would you propose instead?
That depends on the purpose. You can receive messages and notifications right in the app, so for the purposes of communication I would propose absolutely nothing.
