[feature] connect both login methods to the same account

[almereyda]

is your feature request related to a problem? please describe.

Sometimes I forget which accounts I have used to register to a site, why I am randomly choosing a familiar one, and hope it is correct. Here, I would like to be able to login to the same pastemyst account with either of the login methods.

describe the solution you'd like

Either

• the user account is identified by email address, and can thus be mapped to an existing one upon first-login/registration

or

• I can connect my account to the other login method. This means I also need to be able to disconnect a method, when desired.

describe alternatives you've considered

Everything stays as it is, and I need to remember which login provider I have used.

additional context

As in Discourse:

I am not storing emails from those services, so can't use that to associate the same pastemyst account with multiple services.

It would be possible to add connecting to other services, but it won't be added in the current version (v2), it will be added to the new rewrite v3. You can track its progress here: https://github.com/pastemyst/pastemyst-v3/issues/171

Many thanks. Both sounds very reasonable: to not store personal information, when not needed, and also to move architectural changes into the next iteration.

I have subscribed there and am closing here.
