Ok, I just signed up this past week and everything is going along hunky dorry! Then I want to log in with my phone and it won't let me. It says a I need a password (duh). I signed up with coinbase the same day I signed up with Steemit. So i think I'm getting my passwords cross wise. Then I notice that you can't choose your passwords for Steemit...I DON'T EVER REMEMBER BEING GIVEN ONE! I just confirmed my email and then I was in. Boom!
I got the confirmation email from Steemit but don't ever remember getting a password. It says to store the password but I don't remember ever getting one to copy and store?!?! OMG! Am I screwed?
You see, I'm an average American. I'm just spit balling here but if Steemit is ever going to get people to dump Facebook, Youtube, Reddit...etc...they are going to have to plan for the dummies like me who don't remember ever getting a password and not storing it. (I'm sure I got one but never remember seeing it and sure don't remember anything about making sure I save it somewhere safe.)
Even my blockchain wallet has ways of recovering your password or generating a new one if I'm logged in. But Steemit, I can't generate a new one without having the old ONE?? WHAT??
I guess my only option at this point is guarding my computer to make sure nothing happens to it...because it and only it is logged into steemit. TELL ME THIS CAN BE FIXED!!
Ok really...what are my options?
