@Mitsu I just hope the rest of this decade isn't terrible.

@tdemin @verita84 @thestrongest @duponin Fuck it. These 2FA companies are just scams trying to market a service that isn't really needed. All because the vast majority of computer users are fucking idiots who don't know how to create strong passwords and fall for the most obvious phishing scams.

Using phone numbers as any kind of security was a mistake. I recall logging into the former owner of my number's facebook account accidentally by sticking the number in as the username and typing in the code they texted me. The only reason tech companies "require" it is so they can later sell it to phone marketers. Anything else is just cope to justify it

This year sucks too much and probably the next one will suck too

@thestrongest I can't believe how many people are retarded enough to fall for these phishing scams and they're the reason why everyone keeps on pushing this 2FA bullshit.

@thestrongest 2FA is bullshit as well. It's just more apps I have to install on my phone.

Actually github is retarded. If someone has my password they can just login to my github, make a token, then use that to fuck with all my repos

You've heard of password managers now get ready for token managers. I guess because some people are dipshits about security we all gotta suffer with oauth. If this starts requiring a phone number for "extra security" I'm gonna go live in a hole

@noyoushutthefuckupdad This is why I only use the fediverse on my computer and absolutely refuse to use this on my phone. I think social media isn't as addictive when you take smartphones (or even dumb phones via SMS-posts) out of the equation.

@coolboymew What ever happened to top loading disc trays? They were much more reliable.

Debian packaging sucks. Aptly should make it easier; and it does once you figure out all the command, but the documentation is okay but not great and the error messages are absolute fucking garbage.
