May I ask how? Instead of a single sign-in step, this makes it at least 5 step process:

  1. Enter your email on Trakt
  2. Get to your email client
  3. login to your email
  4. Find the email
  5. Copy the code
  6. Get back to Trakt
  7. Enter/Paste the code

Also, none of the three options (Magic, Google, Apple) give more security or any advantage at all. Especially if using email aliases to keep every service separate and not tied to a single point of failure

Also, consider the possibility, that EU residents might not be able to fully/safely/securely use Google and/or Apple services in the near future

IMHO this is a terrible decision to even consider removal of normal login. Just 2FA implementation would be enough
