Yup, we're definitely expanding beyond GitHub and Twitter.

Going more broadly with email should be paired with some new tooling, and possibly a state where users need to be approved, but it will depend on the forem I'd think.

What we don't want is to enable an attack vector where bot networks or other kinds of spammers can hit all forems due to the consistency of attack vector if the software becomes popular enough.
