It’s not implemented well because it adds it to your account immediately without needing to confirm the code. This means if the user doesn’t know what they’re doing they could add 2FA and not copy the code correctly to their password manager resulting in a lockout.

If you go into your account settings you'll see a shiny new 2FA setup option. Once you check the box and reload there will be a button to there link your default 2FA application.

Now for Safari users on macOS who don't use Apple Keychain for your 2FA but rather a 3rd party app like 1Password or Bitwarden things are a little tricky. In order to get around linking it directly to Keychain you can right click the 2FA link and choose "inspect element." Scroll down slightly and you'll see that element highlighted in the new element window. Right click the highlighted area and select "copy link." That's the 2FA code which you can then paste in any 3rd party password manager.

I'm not seeing much at all of that currently. A week ago? Sure. Now it's been consolidated to a mega thread.

What if I told you we don't need to compete with them?

The biggest issue is normies are stupid. That’s basically the gist.

Before algorithms we all used hashtags. Hashtags were very important to Twitter in the before times. That’s how you find topics on mastodon. I have columns set with specific hashtag sets so I can quickly glance at toots about horror movies, birds, retrogaming, etc…

You can also follow hashtags directly in your home feed just like Twitter topics.

It’s really not a difficult thing at all, but people are so addicted to Twitter they always give a halfassed attempt at switching before throwing up their hands.

Umm what the actual fuck? Did Florida just lowkey ban all trans people from their state? How is this constitutional? How do you even say someone is trans when they have an updated birth certificate ffs? This is pure insanity.

Just delete the account a make it on another instance? What’s the issue?

Everyone always saying “rip Twitter” but y’all never leave, so…

Musk started it with the extreme monetizing of Twitter. Cutting off api access, charging premium subs for reach, selling verified… and he got away with it. All the brainless Twitter users are still there using his platform and bitching instead of leaving.

Musk proved you can piss all over your userbase and they won’t leave. Now all tech companies are doing it. Meta is charging for verification. YouTube cutting adblock. Google looking to stop supporting adblock in chrome. Even Reddit CEO citing Musk as his inspiration going forward.

LEAVE these platforms, people. The CEOs are literally laughing at your stupidity while cashing checks.

Trying it now. Thunder is really good but it feels like it’s designed for Android not iOS. Very “material you” feeling.

I’m not sure if you’ve tried this PWA called Wefwef but it feels like a fully featured Apollo client for Lemmy already. You just go to the site and add it to your home screen. No beta to sign up for. No TestFlight link. Just add the PWA.

It’s good. It’s really really good.

Honestly I didn't quite believe it. I had to look it up on wikipedia to realize 1998 was that long ago. I getting old. Really old. Not even a meme old. Like real actual old.

Sure, the very first iPhone released today, but does anyone remember the first Android smartphone?

In October of 1998 HTC’s T-Mobile G1, or HTC Dream as it’s known outside the U.S would launch being the first phone with the Android OS. The G1 was priced at $179 — which was pretty affordable even in those days — and featured top-of-the-line specs including a Qualcomm MSM7201A processor, 192MB of RAM, and 256MB of internal storage (expandable up to 16GB). It also stocked a 3.15MP rear camera, and a 1,150mAh battery.

For better or worse the iPhone hit the market today 16 years ago changing the world forever.

Today was huge. I’ve separated myself enough from Google with Proton applications/services combined with other more privacy focused software and hardware to be able to completely delete my Google account.

It feels great to FINALLY be free of them. I’ve had an account there for decades.
