Common-voice: Synchronize your stats across multiple devices (Firefox account integration?)

[xKeiro]

I would like to see merged stats on my devices, especially since I know you are planning on introducing achievements and goals in the future.

So what I'm suggesting is, it would be nice if you would implement an optional account sync (login) feature.
In my books the ideal solution would be to use Firefox account to sync, but really anything would work (password, google, GitHub etc.)

_Extra fun feature:
If you want to make this whole voice collecting project more fun for the participants you could include a couple extra button like: “I like your voice”, “I love your accent” and show them how many they've got. Just to make some people's day brighter._

I like these ideas! We are planning to add a login of sorts to the site soon, but there are legal issues around privacy we need to work through first. Stay tuned!

But don't make a login mandatory.

Never!

Could you share some light on the legal issues you would be facing while implementing this?

Most importantly, we don't want to associate anyone's email address (or any other personally identifying information) with the data we release. Now that we have released v1 of the data, we have tools that can help us here. So the biggest hurdle now is design and implementation.

Any update on it please? @mikehenrty

@delgermurun we're about to put Authorization #899 in, after that we just need a good story to tie it into existing profiles. So bear with us, it's not far away!

Jeesh, that was in March! 🙈 Well, now it's here.
