Accounts do not persist, no. The “daily wipe” is actually restoration of an old backup. So _everything_ is reset to that backup.

We intentionally do not use SSO as we’ll sometimes use try to test login related issues. We also don’t want users who only want to test something quickly to end up with a permanent account on Meta.
