Hi Stackers!
This is Egge from STARBACKR with a quick update! The time has come; we have finally implemented key-based sign-up and log-in! This was one of the most requested features, and we really took a long time to ensure maximal compatibility and accessibility.
You can see it in action in the video attached to the announcement tweet: https://twitter.com/RealStarBackr/status/1585315318037037057
Accounts created with Slashtags or LNURL-auth do not require an e-mail-address or password (although you can add one for recovery). Existing accounts can be easily linked to a wallet.
There is more to come later this week, but we would already love your feedback on it! Let us know what you think in the comments!

How do we activate it in existing accounts?

Once you scan the QR code, you will be asked whether you want to link an existing account or create a new one.

it'd be easier to open LN wallet to auth if the QR code is clickable(copy and open).

Good point! You mean an "Open in XYZ-App" prompt, right? We will make it happen!
