I prefer signing in with third party SSO because it's a lower chance of yet another website mishandling my password, though I use a password manager

I personally use a generated email with each service so I can track who shares my info. Sso defeats this method of reverse tracking.
I prefer the split approach. I use SSO on the inside of my home network and for hyperscalers and things like Tailscale. At least partly so I could enforce hardware auth when not supported or sane to implement natively.

Everyone else gets a custom email address.

It’s a nice in-between.

Good for you. Keep your SSO login. Nobody's asking for it to be removed. But, your SSO login isn't going to be affected if email login is added, would it?
