You log in to save which topics you follow. Otherwise you'd have to re-follow everything if you start using the app on a different device or install it fresh for some reason.

Having users log in also gives us the option to add future features to the app where an account is necessary (such as integrating comments or Discussions somehow, or letting you interact with content in some other way).
