Hey there! I am SnowChess and I joined the Fediverse, convinced by my (then still future) boyfriend, on the 9th of January 2022.

My hobbies are playing #chess and editing #Wikipedia. I am also interested in #astronomy and in #Finland and I like it to spend time outside. Also a #train fan

'SchneeSchach' means 'SnowChess' in German.

Does something like a big Q&A forum excist?
A place where just can ask where I can find a book about Swedish railway stations for example.
What is a good android emulator I can use?

@badrihippo
It's very bad.
My boyfriend showed me that his university *allowes* it to use another 2FA.

I think I am going to mail my school soon about this.

I read about BlueStacks. Do you know that?

I bought an apart laptop for school stuff, to avoid my private laptop is 'infected' with school stuff. I could download BlueStacks on that laptop to run Microsoft Authenticator on it, I guess (I mean, that laptop is already cursed, so it doesn't care anymore).

But that solution feels not very good for me, because then I 'give up the battle', and that feels bad.

What MFA apps can I put on my laptop?
@badrihippo
Yeah.
I am now looking to avoid the MFA with my smartphone.
They force to use the authenticator of Microsoft and nothing else...

@badrihippo
Thank you! I already made a list.

The biggest problem is the university. They give my college card only online, force me to use multi-factor authentication, and, when I have a test, I have to put all my stuff in a locker, which can only be opened or closed by an app.....

Oh, the same university (I mean, university of applied sciences; 'Hogeschool' in Dutch) forced me to put myself on LinkedIn. I told them I really didn't want to do this, then I was okay when I only made a cv.

I would love to stop using smartphones.
Advice?
