  • Pretty good. It’s my default morning scroll, at least.

    I’ve got a lot more comfortable with it since using Alexandrite on desktop and Sync on mobile.

    The only thing really missing at the moment is content. It tends to be good for the high profile stuff, but a bit lacking for the niche stuff. I still sneak back to the other place on occasion to catch up on smaller communities… hopefully that will come with time.



  • I got it to work with 1Password, but it seems unfinished and very risky.

    To get it to work, I copied the link that the “2FA installation link” button points at, and pasted that into a new 2-factor field in 1password. It presumably was able to extract the secret and start generating the codes. I’ve tested it and it works.

    However, it’s risky because Lemmy doesn’t verify you have the correct codes before enabling 2FA. It just assumes you’ll be able to use the cryptic link for something. So if you log out before you’ve set it up, and you mess up the set up, you might not be able to get back in. There are no backup codes as far as I can tell.

    So if you do attempt it, I would recommend keeping a device logged in so you can disable it if it goes wrong.
