Anyone reading this in 2020 or later: AVOID COIL. They do not have proper processes in place to protect data. They just sent a big 'ol privacy policy email out, and exposed every single user's email address in the To: field. This is no small error: it amounts to the same damage as a comprehensive data breach.
I just deleted my account, and I strongly advise everyone else to do the same.

Thanks for the tip. Does anyone have an alternative?
how to delete the account?
Does an alternative exists?
Odd that this is supported on the backend of dev.to -- when I click "Learn More" it takes me to this article...
That's why I commented here. I was using Coil. That's how I found out about the aforesaid breach...I was included on that email.
Well, thank you! I was starting down the signup and stopped. 😎
