As requested from several directions, I tried to update my expert profile on the EU's experts website, since @ngi is looking for more reviewers. But as usual, the horror of the EC's own login system (WHY!) struck again (#ECAS).

WHY DOESN'T IT USE STANDARD WEB TECHNOLOGIES LIKE #PASSKEYS!!

I STILL CAN'T ACTIVATE 2FA AND I HAVE THE EU LOGIN APP SET UP ON MY IPHONE!

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! 🤯

@1br0wn @ngi I've run into this as well – but it actually used to be worse! Not using bog-standard passkeys or TOTP 2FA is just nuts.

Feeling this. I once thought I'd never get paid because I had two accounts on that system-from-hell: one as an external, another as a consultant. Nightmare to sort out.
