[feature]: Password authentication in the cloud version

[Quadrubo]

Is there an existing issue for this?

Summary

I think it would be a good idea to add password authentication to the cloud version. The feature should of course be made optional so people who prefer magic links can use those.

Why should this be worked on?

Advantages of Passwords over Magic Links:

1. Passwords are quicker to enter and require fewer steps. With magic links i need to request a link, login to the email, open the link from the email. A password can be easily remembered or autofilled.
2. On a device that doesn't have access to the email inbox of the plane account, it is hard to use magic links. I have to either send the magic link over an insecure channel or type the link manually which is clunky.

Thank you for raising this feature request. We should definitely add password-based authentication to make the sign-up process smoother on both cloud and self-hosted platforms. We'll pick this up very soon.
