I started using FreeTube on both desktop and android and never have to sign in anymore. I also get a lot of cool features that aren't available in YouTube.

I'm glad he did, now there is a clear line from when it was acceptable to when it wasn't.

The USA probably won't rebrand when its a fully fascist state.

I don't use keypass. And this is going to be a me problem. I just found out android password store has been archived in 2024 so I'll need a replacement that works with pass

IronFox is pretty good. My only gripe with it is that my password store doesn't recognize it as a web browser.

For example, in Firefox if I go to gitlab.com and sign in, my password store does a lookup for passwords that have gitlab.com in the path. But with IronFox the lookup is for IronFox, which is similar to what happens if I use a qr code reader app to open a link in webview. But I have webview disabled so I think it's just something proprietary in Firefox that was striped out.

Well again, the claim was that somehow passkeys would stop Lemmy from being flooded by bots.

So in that situation, we aren't talking about hacking. We are simply talking about if a login could be triggered programmatically. So if Lemmy required passkeys to be used instead of passwords. And if the passkeys required scanning a QR code to sign in. I imagine It would provide minimal disruption to an automated login.

Now if the passkeys somehow enforced a real human to do something that only a human could do, then yes it would stop an automated registration/login. However if it's possible to automate then it wouldn't stop bots.

That was why I remembered it, it was just so dumb. Like first what tf are kids in kindergarten even getting graded on?

Consider buying a previous generation card. You can sometimes find good deals on used ones.

Being attractive improves literally every aspect of your life. I forget the study but I read once that kindergarten teachers consistently gave better grades to the more attractive students for example.

However if someone is an asshole they will still be mean.

What would you propose replace passwords to not be susceptible to those things?

I personally like how secure and non intrusive passwords are, especially when using a self hosted password manager synced with git.
