There are different opinions on Beehaw's registration process. I kind of see how some people would find it dissuasive, specially after most of us are coming from Reddit. But I still think it's very practical, at least for the time being.

Btw, this is only my opinion as a new user, I don't know any of the admins/mods. Link to my original comment.

It did for me! I made an account a few months ago, and it immediately suspended me and asked for a phone number. I gave it that and then it asked for a photo of me holding a piece of paper with my username.

Think it might have been because I did the cardinal sin of not using a gmail or hotmail email.

But creating an account using my Facebook account and single sign on works, so ehhh.

Screw all these companies wanting access to your phone number... Bleh.
