I agree with you, my titling was unintentionally misleading from a fair few points of view and I apologize.
I wasn't specifically trying to solve for 'digital identity' thus email wasn't something I was problematizing with this go and my 'improvements' were more to do with design context and other interactivity but I get where you're coming from, badrabbit.
I will do better!

- _8j50 3y agoYou have nothing to apologize for and you're doing great. I didn't need a valid email to signup for HN,Reddit or even matrix.org in its infancy. That's where I'm coming from. There are better anti-fraud measures and it should be up to the user if they want a way to reset their account. Ideally, you'll have 2FA and the non-email 2FA recovery will also reset the password (such as one time codes you write down, or prove multiple external identity control such as a phone number and creditcard, or ID photo and phone number). But as I admitted, I shat on your work because I ran into this pet-peeve. So, it is I who should apologize (and I do apologize).
