Hi @InternetIsScary@mstdn.social
Also, do most people know of this on fediverse? Jw
Some people noticed earlier posts from Mastodon to Lemmy and thought it was cool. Guess it is a matter of getting used to for others π
This PAKE post by Cloudflare is way over my head, but very good to see that new things are explored to make security really better.
The OP posted from Mastodon (check their profile) hence the hashtags.
There's an open issue here from Mar 13, 2023 : https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/1775 One commenter writes that it works on Sway but not hyprland.
What is it ?
Glad to see another person who is not keen on the passkeys. I have the feeling it is being hyped and perhaps without good reasons. Therefore I was glad to share this blog post when I saw it on Mastodon. btw, the blog post author turns out to be the software developer of similar software like Authentik and Keycloak. In other words, not just the average Linux user :)
I really think that we should have just iterated on passwords. Switch to a PAKE and keep improving password-manager UX and pushing most users to auto-generated passwords. So much was lost by switching to a system that most users donβt understand.
When I search with a search engine for PAKE I don't find anything useful. Got a link ?
I like your reasoning about just using passwords. However, my experience is that a scary amount of users are using the same rather weak password for lots of different accounts. And a still scary amount of users does get tricked into phishing emails. What I like for myself is have a bunch of security keys and use them as much as possible for important logins.Some applications allow for five different security keys to be configured.And this could theoretically also be a way to use 2FA within teams. One team person does the login, adds a key, then let's the second team member put in their key and so on.
I wrote a blog about this a while ago. https://kevincox.ca/2022/04/07/passwords/
Thanks. I see you shared it two years ago on Lobsters and got a fair amount of comments. π
My personal tin foil hat theory is that they purposely made windows 11 trash so that people would support a subscription based Windows service with Windows 10.
I'm with you on that.
Iβve read through the Linux command line by William shotts,
That didn't ring a bell though on further inspection I've seen it before. Thanks.

But to answer the question, I love shortcuts. I got into emacs and learned enough to use enough of the agenda features to have a lot of journal entries on it.
I guess this Emacs orgmode, right ? I read of lots of people being very happy with that.
π Yeah, I missed that π
