Unable to Sign in with a Different Provider Without Original Provider Access #3189

Description of Bug

When attempting to sign in to my existing StackBlitz account using a different provider, the following message is displayed:
"It looks like you're attempting to sign in to your existing StackBlitz account using a different provider. Please proceed by signing in with the provider you originally used, then you can add your new provider in the settings."

The problem is, I can’t access the original provider account anymore. This makes it impossible for me to log in or get back to my projects.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Sign up for a StackBlitz account using one provider (e.g., Google).
  2. Try signing in with a different provider (e.g., GitHub) without using the original one first.
  3. The error message appears, and you’re stuck.

Expected Behavior

There should be some way to recover my account or link a new provider, even if I can’t use the original one. Maybe something like verifying ownership through email or another method.
