Is there a way to handle anonymous signup (non-email identifier)?

hey @beestreams what would be the identifier of the user in this case?

I found this now: https://supertokens.com/docs/thirdparty/common-customizations/sessions/anonymous-session and that might cover our usecase. We want a user to signup, and do stuff. When stuff is done they would be able to upgrade the account and keep the stuff if that makes sense.

Right. But when they sign up, what info will they provide? For example, will there be no email?

Thinking it might be a device ID to begin with. With this we could have an anonymous session, register some metadata and then upgrade the account when they are ready
