This doesn't answer your question, but I created a completely new GitHub account and exclusively use it for logging into Tailscale.

Thanks for sharing. Iirc, having multiple accounts on GitHub itself is against their ToS. I fear it might increase the chance of getting banned for violating their TOS. Correct me if I’m wrong though.

I have a personal and one account for my company.

Ah, ok. I didn't realize that. Great! This gives me a good reason to delete the other account and complete my migration to Codeberg! Thanks!

Is that is against TOS then every dev I know is fucked, we all have a personal and work account. My work requires an account made with a work email to use fucking coopilot, and I need a personal account.

I think it’s fine to have multiple as long as they are paid accounts. But free only allows one.
