Same here — I cannot create an account with a password. If you try to go in and do an email signup, they will punish you for it by emailing you every time with a new password, until you suffered enough that you'll relent and give them access to your Google account.

Not a great first impression — especially not after their support tells me that this is for my own security.

Wow. Thanks for the warning. Why the fuck would anyone be so user-hostile?

I use Notion with a non google e-mail and don't mind the password being e-mailed to me. I have to re-auth maybe once a month, tops, and it's one less password to manage.

It is an extremely frustrating practice (emailing you the password). I find that I have to go through this every few days for whatever reason and I've had cases where the email from Notion took five minutes to arrive.

I need to log in every time I close the tab. (For me, one less password to manage is not a concern, I have a password manager for that)
