Thanks for the feedback. These are not easy product tradeoffs we’re trying to think through so we really appreciate the thoughts.

We’re thinking of having our own login in the future. Right now, creating our own login would force users to go through a longer flow. Also we’re considering adding a friends filter, and Facebook’s social feed is probably the best starting point for that.

Is there any sources of login you trust that you have your friends connection on?

I'm not speaking for 27182818284 but I would rather sign in with Google than Facebook.

or Twitter or ...

Give them options, and they will sign in.

Yes. I think a lot of startups and app developers incorrectly think that if someone doesn't want to log in with Facebook, they don't want to use any sort of account, but that's not true. Even though I don't have a Facebook account, I still use Twitter to sign into a few apps and still use Google+ to sign into others.
