Comment on Gitrep - Discover and organize Github repositories parent

You can say the same for Twitter, Facebook and Google. There is always the potential for downtime, but users generally don't want to create more accounts. I think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Plus, sites that use GitHub logins are much more appealing to developers rather than sites that use Facebook or Twitter logins.

Haha Facebook. On 90% of show HN posts involving Facebook logins the top or second to top comment is something like "Facebook login is a nonstarter"

I can understand that if a facebook login is required, but offering it as a choice shouldn't be frowned upon.
