Password-less Accounts

Twitter sign in was a temporary way of creating accounts. We started there because it lets you find your favorite writers and allowed us to keep things simple.

Now, users have two options for creating an account: Sign in with Apple and Sign in with Email via Magic Link.

We recommend Sign in with Apple: it's two taps, as secure as Apple, and allows you to mask your email if you choose.

We dislike passwords so we don't ask you to use one. If you prefer to register via email, we'll email you a magic link in lieu of setting a password.
