Logging in to webstudio without google or github

Looking into Webstudio, not totally sure about it yet but I was gonna try it out and then was greeted with this. πŸ˜… How do I log in without Google or Github?

These are only options at the moment. Though we are considering login by email+passkeys support.
That would be really nice thank you! Can you share more about why these options were included as the defaults? To me feels counterintuitive to the open source/open nature of webstudio. Also email is pretty basic and feels like a strange ommission. πŸ€” Passkeys are newer so makes more sense that they weren't included.
@ben I'm not on the team, but I'd assume it was just fastest and easiest to setup with those providers. Email/passwords and passkeys have more maintance behind them.
Thanks Jeremy!
I agree, felt counterintuitive to me as well from open source/open nature perspective. Was something holding me back initially to sign up. (pretty happy I did anyway!)
To consider a bit of privacy you can more easily create a new github account than a google account and sign in with that new github account.
I use the GitHub method myself. Been able to move away almost entirely from google.
+1 on adding email as a login option. Planning on deleting both my Google and Github accounts as part of a general move away from big tech
