Can't SignIn after changing GitHub username
See original GitHub issueRecently i changed my GitHub username. Primary email is still the same but old username now is an GitHub organization.
Now when i try to SignIn i do receive Yikes! Something went wrong with your request.
.
I believe the only way to solve this issue is to manually remove OAuth connection from my account so i can re-authorize and sign in again.
I tried to remove Authorized OAuth Stackblitz app from my GitHub account and to SignIn again, but with no luck, probably because of email.
But in general… this should be handled somehow more user friendly way. Mby handle new username/credentials of that email in your side automatically?

Yeah users shouldn’t get a “Yikes!” message for username change. Accounts should be tied to their ID which is just as easy to grab but does not change like e-mail and username:

For sure my emails in GH is 100% verified. TBH because of this SB issue I already forgot what this service is for, so I personally don’t care much about this issue anymore.
