@Cahatstrophe2@isometry.group: you’ve heard of two factor authentication. you’re heard of three factor authentication. now get ready for just never being able to fucking log in at all
I heard of passwordless login and I just can’t trust it
I kinda like the ones where you enter your email address and they email you a temporary password, that way we don’t have to ever remember or save a password. I think that’s secure enough, no?
I hate those magic links…
I am trying to login on a different device than I am able to receive and open the link on…Bloody impossible.
Now I either shorten the link somewhere or I chat me the name through discord or teams or whatever just so I can log my account in on a foreign machine.
Hell no, then I have to find my phone to log into my email.
for text ones, but what about just email ones?
I still got to get my phone to 2FA into my email.
I especially love how it lets anyone that can access my email login in to any site that uses that pattern! That’s the best! So now someone only has to hack one thing to get access to all my stuff, it’s super convenient.
Don’t most websites use email when you press the “forgot password” button anyways?
Sites shouldn’t be letting you reset a password without answering security questions first either.
What was the middle name of your first highschool girlfriends dog?
Whoa, these security questions are becoming impossible.
Anyway that reminds me last week I answered alonevof my custom-chosen security questions the only way it could possibly be answered and they told me it was wrong. So I guess I’m not going back to that website ever again.
