I did it years ago when they sent me an email suggesting to do exactly that.

You can also register a MFA app and lock recovery codes in your PC.

This has been announced with enough time, you still have time to download another app like aegis or whatever. This is only for new logins however, you will still have access to bitwarden wherever you are already logged on.

You provided a situation where your phone was robbed and you didn't plan for it so you didn't print the relevant information.

So... Prepare ahead? Go to a relevant office with identification to get access to the relevant tickets again?

"What can I do if all the tools at my disposal to get the relevant information are stolen?" You get fucked. Idk what else to tell you.

On my home PC. Same with the 2fa export of aegis.

~~"What if you can't access blah"~~

~~There's a limit to interoperability, if you want access to everything everywhere even when you lose access for whatever reason, you will have to concede security.~~

~~You could save a keepass file with secure notes of both the bitwarden 2fa and recovery codes and save it in drive or whatever, you don't need passwords nowadays to access the Google account.~~

~~"But what if I lose access to my phone?"~~

~~Well you are fucked, what else do you want? I guess you could print the recovery keys and store them in a secured box at home.~~

Edit: I read further down that your comment was meant to incite other to actually think and do stuff. Sorry if I came of rude.

It's been a thing for a while with rolling distros, let's hope the release based ones ship it and their the flatpak issues so most users can enjoy sharing the screen with friends soon.

It kinda works because a moose and a deer are similar if not for the size, and both rain and rivers have water. It became a rain-deer.

Terrible pun, sue me.

So it's a misstranslated joke then. With that information it's kinda funny or at least it makes sense.

Would they? Signal could make this a choice per user. As in, you as a signal user don't enable it so they can't msg you, but they can enable it from signal to talk to you and their social circle all at once.

[–] fushuan@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

This a really easy issue to fix for signal.

Signal could enable it on a per-user basis. Why would your friends keep using signal? Because you would not enable it so they won't be able to talk to you. However, they can now enable it and keep talking to everyone else, so they might decide to delete WhatsApp with in time.

You don't understand. This is not for you, the signal user, to speak with WhatsApp users. This is for you to convince them to swap to signal and keep talking to other WhatsApp users. The more people change, the less information will go through meta. Lowering the barrier to swap apps is great.

To send messages, the third-party providers have to construct message protobuf structures which are then encrypted using the Signal Protocol and then packaged into message stanzas in eXtensible Markup Language (XML). 

Meta servers push messages to connected clients over a persistent connection. Third-party servers are responsible for hosting any media files their client applications send to Meta clients (such as image or video files). After receiving a media message, Meta clients will subsequently download the encrypted media from the third-party messaging servers using a Meta proxy service.

This is only for messages sent to WhatsApp, right now you are force to use their app to chat with WhatsApp users, which is worse than the proposal.
