I see some messages about account linking feature being worked on. I thought supertokens wasn't doing that because its a security issue?
1. Did you change your mind?
2. I can't find the docs page about account linking. Would you mind posting the link to it if you have it?
3. Would you mind posting any links to external sources that talk about the security implications of this?

Hey @kelbs. Doing account linking does increase the security risk of your app. But we decided to implement it (with turned off by default) cause there is a lot of demand for it.

And for several apps, the security risks are ok given the improved UX

We haven’t yet finished implementation of account linking. So we don’t have any docs for it.
SuperTokens is an open source authentication solution offering features like: Different types of login: Email / password, Passwordless (OTP or Magic link based).
