I kinda like the idea of pre-filling the email input fields with "@" and have never seen that before. It's pretty easy to remove or type my login address around your provided @ (which a recurring visitor rarely does, as you stay logged in). But every once in a while I find myself in a foreign environment / keyboard layout / device having no idea how to type that character.



I don't find this advantageous at all. Easy to start typing after the @ symbol, then you have to go back and fix it, just seems to waste time.


Agreed, a placeholder="your@email.com" works just fine.


what if my address is bob@accounts@localhost ?


You mean bob!accounts@localhost?
