We probably want to avoid using third party auth (Google/Facebook sign in). These are my reasons for it:

  • This is a small scale app. GT soft is a small team and we don't get paid to do this.
    A user's email id is the least amount of value we can ask for from the users while the app stays free to use.

  • The email can be used to communicate directly to the users and help cater and steer the product in the direction that brings value to them. This also means we will limit the scale of this app. (For now we can imagine an arbitrary number of users say 100 or 1000).
    This will make it cheap to run the app because server costs will be low. Catering to the masses is expensive. We won't do it unless an investor is willing to waste money on our app ☺️.

  • We want to build a loyal user base. High quality. Low quantity. We are GT soft 🤘 not Meta 👎. Also, we are the user base. We want to build something we would use ourselves. It's the least amount of value we could get from sinking time into this project.
