I&#x27;d like to be able to check it out, but there is nothing on the page describing the tool. The next best thing would be to check it out using a fake email, but I cannot confirm from the fake address.<p>While it might make sense to verify email addresses when the app is in full production (but probably does not), when the goal is to get feedback, putting friction into the process is (at least in my case) counter productive. At the very least, I am going to switch browser tabs to process the email and then wind up on another page to confirm it before I get back to looking at what I wanted to see. In between...well...I&#x27;ve got Hacker News open and there&#x27;s probably something more interesting there than dealing with email and thinking about the possibility that I am signing up for spam. And that&#x27;s about the best case for using an email sign up.<p>All that for an email address rather than usage data about the product. I know email addresses have some value, but the valuable addresses are those of <i>engaged</i> users and an email address != a user (let alone engaged user).<p>My random advice is to consider what problem email signup solves for potential users and whether or not it drives away the kind of users that might be good for the site.<p>Good luck.

Tried to use a generic password &#x2F; no password and got this: Βάλε ένα έγκυρο κωδικό με τουλάχιστον 8 χαρακτήρες...<p>No idea what that says since I read only english, but i&#x27;m guessing it&#x27;s a bug.

Says build a website instantly.<p>But when I click the link it requires me to fill in 2 fields and verify my email.<p>Maybe we have different definitions of &quot;instantly&quot;
