If @protonprivacy is serious about the recovery email/numbers being optional, they should remove this non-dismissable (dark pattern) warning in their settings tbh
It's even worse now that it shows an orange dot on the security center sidebar icon in the inbox as well, there's no escape! Let me accept the risk!
@blakeashleyjr I would not assume the recent case is the only reason people don’t want to provide a recovery email.
I trust Proton with my security, and I don’t want to additionally trust a third party email provider with my Proton account security as well, so having a recovery email would be pointless. I should be able to avoid the recovery options entirely without being nagged to add one in multiple locations throughout the Proton interface. I think Proton will improve this though. This has nothing to do with courts and governments 🤷♂️
@dieTasse and when an actual security alert shows up in my sidebar I’ll just be trained to ignore it?
It’s unacceptable when anti-privacy companies nag you to enable telemetry and whatever constantly, and it’s equally unacceptable for pro-privacy companies like Proton to nag you constantly when you decide not to add plaintext metadata to your account. Proton isn’t exempt from basic standards by virtue of being Proton. And it’s a simple fix, because they can just add an ignore button to the notification.
I’m glad Apple’s iPad Pro marketing video is getting the hate it deserves, I was sad watching that during the event. That arcade cabinet looked pretty neat.
I didn’t think those eBay cyberstalkers could be one-upped, but now I’m pretty sure we’re going to find out some Boeing execs decided to take matters into their own hands and assassinate those whistleblowers. I wonder how long it’ll be before some evidence comes out 🙃
As an early adopter and proponent of Passkeys, it pains me to say I completely agree with this blog post. The UX of Passkeys is completely terrible and it’s become crystal clear that Apple and Google have no intention of improving it. I can’t imagine recommending a regular person adopt passkeys, I don’t think that will ever change, and even I’ve frequently found myself opting for a regular password + MFA on websites when given the option 😢
I'm excited about this #Ghost news. My only question is regarding this dashboard they're expanding. They say you'll be able to follow other Ghost blogs in a unified dashboard in your own Ghost blog, which is awesome.
What about people who don't have a Ghost blog themselves, but want to follow Ghost blogs in this same way?
Will they be told to sign up for a free (centralized) ghost.org account? Will they be told to sign up for something else entirely, like Mastodon?
@nateb I thought it was good, notably not having any other experience with the franchise, although some of the stuff I've been reading does make me suspect I'll like some stuff from the more faithful Tencent adaptation more. I think I'll end up liking both for different reasons, once I get around to watching it.
There have been so many fantastic sci-fi TV shows that have come out in just the last 5 years alone though, that makes this series definitely not a genre-leading/defining one, which is unfortunate for Netflix.
@nateb side note, I am a little annoyed that the titular problem is actually a four body problem... but I'll let that go because it would've been a less catchy title, and I don't think the science itself is really supposed to hold up to any scrutiny anyways 😆
@ch0ccyra1n interesting, I’ll keep an eye on it. Commit history dates don’t look super promising. I was thinking about forking BookWyrm maybe, but then I decided it’s probably not something I really want to take on myself 😆
