Then there comes consistency you don't want to use something that is not widely used, as it will be overall more confusing and unacceptable compared to the majority of services. I may be the only one, but log in is generally more confusing, and does not make as much sense as sign in. You use your credentials (Your ID, Credit/Debit card, etc) to get the room, and when you get to the front desk, they sign those credentials into the hotel's database/log. Take for example you are going into a hotel, and you need to get a room. You see, 'log in' does not generally mean enter the system with credentials, logically, while 'sign in' is more recognizable.
This is generally just based on the user's preference, but I would say you would be better off using sign in, but be consistent. Posts with unsourced content may be edited or deleted.

Charlie And The Chocolate Factory’s Oompa Loompas are now called “small people” instead of “small men”, while the Cloud-Men in James And The Giant Peach (1961) have become Cloud-People.Īuthor Michael Shellenberger wrote on Twitter: “This is totalitarian censorship and should be broadly condemned by authors and publishers.”Īnother writer, Christopher Paolini, added: “This is wrong. Gender-neutral terms have also been added. In The Fantastic Mr Fox (1970), the word “black” was removed from the description of the terrible tractors and changed to “murderous, brutal-looking monsters”. Occupations for women were also changed from “cashier in a supermarket or typing letters for a businessman” to “top scientist or running a business”. A paragraph about witches being bald beneath their wigs has a new line added: “There are plenty of other reasons why women might wear wigs and there is certainly nothing wrong with that.”
