Choose login method first = frustration (users may not remember what IdP they used) Stepped process = drop in complaints

OMG yes. We went with "choose the login option" and it sucked. Everyone created multiple accounts (we didn't support combined identity at the time) and it just..sucked.

Not that I disagree, but we have possibly the world's most boring login system with nothing but email/password and even then people manage to create multiple accounts. And then [email protected] will email us, asking why the facilities they set up last month aren't working any more, completely failing to mention that they set them up using their [email protected] account.
