Social media logins only? What would you think of that?

So at the moment our emails don't work due to a problem with our provider. The problem with this is new users don't get an activation email as well as you don't get emails when people reply to you.

I was wondering if I should just allow people to use the site by using their twitter, Facebook or Google account. What would you think of that? It could be a temporary thing until we get it fixed, but who knows!

It's alright as a temporary solution, but email is used also to follow some discussions and should be fixed long-term. Can't you just use sendgrid and co?

[Admin]

Long term - definitely. I'm in the process of using another provider but it's not fully ready just yet.

Emails are back working now

That would be great! I don't have Facebook or twitter but a google login would be appreciated. Not forever but it would be a great temporary solution

[Admin]

Emails are fixed now so it's all good!

My bad. I should've looked at the date of the post.
