No email required — and no lockouts eitherimproved

Wakelog signup asks for a username and a password. That's it — no email, no verification link, no newsletter you didn't ask for.

The catch with email-free accounts used to be: lose your password, lose your account. Fixed. Every account gets a recovery key (wlr_…) shown once at signup. Save it in your password manager; if you ever lose your password, username + recovery key gets you back in (and rotates the key). You can generate a fresh key from the dashboard any time.

Keys are stored hashed, compared in constant time, and recovery attempts are rate-limited. Your changelog is not a honeypot.
