@eevee There are times I wonder if some of these actions are disguised trolling for information. The email and SMS steps could be considered as “we want to make sure we are up to date” on this.
Show threadatomicwritesFeb 3, 2023
@fuzzface @eevee yeah, although I think the big annoyance they're complaining about is when you get an SMS code as a login challenge and the next screen is we need to verify your phone by sending you another SMS code, repeat for email.

  • No, you can't cycle your passwords for at least a year.
  • Hey we noticed you're just repeating the same suffix for your passwords. Please stop doing that.
  • Now you're increasing numbers. No.
  • Increasing them by 2 is just the same thing!
  • No, the Fibonacci sequence is in our deny list. Try something more clever.
  • Okay, wise guy, you're using prime number sequences now? We still detected them, hahah! Denied!
  • Sequences of pi digits now? Okay, FINE! But just this once! (And don't push your luck, PUNK!)

Show threadCătă 🇷🇴🇺🇦🇲🇩🇪🇺Feb 2, 2023
@anders I use a notebook and a pen. It is the strongest password manager ever created, no need to worry about security issues.

I also use 2FA - slightly inconvenient, ik - and for those services I use with that, I keep their passwords in KeePass. I think it's the strongest security a normal user would need.
