I did not write the code for NCD. I only have patched/changed the frontend code. I do not know Elixir (I'd like to) but my focus is on React and NodeJS. If I'm going to build something, I'm going to make sure it's as secure as I can make it, and email security/OAuth is out of my hands for the most part.

I like React. It's a fun toy language for people like me who cannot take the time to learn C. I'd like to pick up Python eventually for machine learning/AI tasks eventually but I want to master this first.

Yes, but anyone on this side of the internet dumb enough to use firstnamelastname@gmail.com for their email is more or less asking for it. Besides, the platform isn't going to be for WN/fashy shit. It's just an art repository for their usage. If you cannot be fucked to use one of your fourteen burner Protonmail accounts to sign in then I'm not sure what to tell you.
Frankly I do not understand the flow of salting/hashing/verifying passwords well enough to effectively do it myself and don't want to slip up somewhere because retards use the same password for everything, have passwords leak, and then that causes a cascade of issues.

I consider all edge cases in everything I do and spend hours mulling over stupid "what-ifs" and never get anything done because of it. If Protonmail blocks OTP/verification links now (never had the issue myself but I don't really use Protonmail much anymore), then there are other providers you can use.
