Does 2FA work? It's a real janky implementation that doesn't even require the confirmation of a 2FA code before it's enabled. But I tried logging into my account using incognito mode and it wouldn't let me with 2FA enabled and I had the right code. I think this needs to be looked at before people start getting locked out of their accounts.

Yeah, I feel like they're a little late to the party. They should have had this ready to go once they decided they were going to prolong their protest.

Until there is a viable Twitter competitor, this will continue and people will keep using it.

There needs to be one that scales. Mastodon had its chance and it's clear people don't want it. Maybe the answer is Bluesky, but that's not going to happen unless they open up their doors.

I can't believe I'm rooting for Meta, but their Threads app might work out and it will be better once it syncs with ActivityPub.

They're only going to retire if a Republican wins the presidency. If not, they'll wait out another 4 years.

If Sync for Lemmy releases with half of the features and polish of the Reddit version, it's going to default to be the app of choice.

That's the beauty of the fediverse. Don't like the server? Go somewhere else.

AFAIK, the Constitution does not state that Supreme Court Justices have life terms. It is vague and has been interpreted to maybe mean life terms but it doesn't explicitly say that.

In the beginning days of the Pixel, both sizes were the same specs - just one bigger than the other. The XL outsold the smaller one consistently.

Everytime someone says this and manufacturers end up making a smaller phone... no one buys them.

Keeping the Planetside subreddit closed indefinitely is a bad move. This "protest" will pass like all the others and there is a decade's worth of content and history there that people should see.

Personally, I think these protests are hurting users more than they are hurting Reddit. But I'm fine with it transitioning over the Lemmy or where ever else, but discoverability is the issue there.

OceanGate was skirting safety protocols with the Titan.

Last week the June QPR OTA was released, but my unlocked Pixel 7 on AT&T still can't pull it, and when I try it says my device is up to date.

Anyone else in this boat? Either the AT&T version was delayed or they have reverted the "Check for update" button to just check your place in the rollout, not force pull the download.

EDIT/UPDATE: Was able to pull the update today (6/20) using the Check for Update button.

So I saw that the June QPR update was released yesterday, but it's still not available as an OTA when I try to pull it on my Pixel 7. Anyone else?

EDIT/UPDATE: Was finally able to pull this on 6/20 using the Check for Update button.
