“Then there’s all the shit websites/apps that I don’t give a fuck about that now insist on having 2FA set up. They’re not interested in the security, it’s just to get your email and phone number to onsell your data to whoever.”

Of everything you wrote, this one had my eyes wide. Hadn’t even crossed my mind that could be a problem. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Good point. I guess it’s never really bothered me. It’s one of those things I’ve just come to expect nowadays.

I stand by it being cash money though. lmao

Hmm. Maybe I’m misunderstanding something fundamental about cyber security, but wouldn’t a server leak give you login credentials regardless of the uniqueness or amount of use a password has? And 2FA would still protect against that?

I might have thrown my hat into a ring I have no place in lmao

It’s also a protection against people who get their hands on your credentials though. You don’t really have any control over a server with your data on it getting compromised, right?

Do you not understand how much 2FA helps you? That shit is cash money.

I was genuinely like, “oh no no no no” when I noticed. But oh well, it’s kinda funny to me.

What the fuck is all this anti-Windows 11 talk? I have never had a problem with it. Is it because of functionality or something else? Because, functionality wise, it’s been fine for me. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Oh shit I didn’t realize this was in Linux. Welp o7 I go down with my ship lmao

Yepp, pretty typical. I have family that calls themselves progressive and say similar shit to yours.

I pretty much resorted to considering them all dead.

It’s pretty funny when they wonder why I don’t come around anymore. “It’s because of you, you bigoted racist piece of garbage fuck.”

You act as if all hate is bad. It isn’t.

There is even a song for it!

I come from a state that has officially mandated that porn websites must verify your age to use them for years. There were many websites that just didn’t give a fuck. X videos in particular. They do now require you to hit a button saying “I’m 18” to process, but I think my point stands.

These laws do nothing, really.

Thank you!

You only need the first A for the fascism qualification.

Christian propaganda? Destroy it and hide the evidence.

The less of that evil in the world, the better.

You’re cooked. Same thing happened to me. I tried for a few days to see if there was any way around it, but I wasn’t about to get a VPN just to use Reddit. Or get a whole new device.

Pretty sure they have all the IPs that your account has ever connected to, so anything attempting to login from those IPs will also be banned. So that’s what you’ll have to work around, if you want to do it.

I’m no expert though, that’s just what I learned over my couple of days of trying.

+Looks like there’s no need for scouring the internet for an alternative, you’ve already found it.
