Sure, but I don't like any of those options. I don't want Microsoft to have my phone number, I have like 15-20 logins, which is small enough to keep on paper [1], so I have no password manager, and I always logged out of GitHub since I generally log in to things via a private window.

I really, really don't like being tracked, "filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed, or numbered", so avoid accounts as much as possible, and all the more so from megacorporations.

[1] Correction: I originally said 10-15 but I remembered a few that are in the Firefox password manager, like archive.org.
