CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@babble_endanger@freeradical.zone What makes this idea even funnier is how a fair handful of my friends and family keep actually losing their emails. My sister's Gmail uses my email as a recovery email so I can help her if she forgets her password or gets hacked (again) and every now and then she (in-person) asks me what the recovery code that Google just sent me for her email was because she locked herself out of the umpteenth time in a row.

@babble_endanger@freeradical.zone What especially sucks is signing in with a security key or passkey and still being prompted for another fucking factor of authentication. I'll do it anyway and have it set up like this but it's infuriating when those methods especially are meant to be very strong proof it is in fact you.
