broken like fiat, modern logins are literally inflation right
My new favorite is that my Gmail verification demands number I lost a year ago, but can still log in from trusted devices. But cannot change the number. It sends me only to FAQ, no other option given.
True story.
It is just sad π

Sounds like Gmail and Facebook are botphobic. Not very inclusive of them.
Mass corporate social media is broken. Stop using 'free' services where you are the product.
Nobody sees the mistake?
Right there in the first line...
Bruh. PAIIIIIINNNNN
I HATE THESE PEOPLE
...and this is why we Nostr
It's like a train wreck and you just can't turn away.
Lhes apresento as redes sociais fiat
Yep , thatβs why I #nostr , absolutely ridiculous ππ«
opt out!
Confirm so we can track you better. It's magic...
This is why I moved my emails to protonmail and tutanota. I have privacy & control over my account.
Nostr.
I've identified the problem:
Me: [goes to Facebook]
make web 1.o great agin!!
I am crying like a little gurl at the realization that all of the above is true and not about to get any better.
We must focus on finding out how our #bitcoin #nostr escape pod will grow to the size of the many that will follow us in desperation after seeing us achieve peace, like no other, as we reduce our interactions with the broken internet.

Solution: leave Facebook!
Totally true π―
LMAO
It is not the internet that is broken. It is much of Big Tech and government. They seem to think they have enough of us sufficiently completely whipped that we will accept anything as normal and reasonable. And it thinks with some justification that the one that aren't whipped enough yet soon will be by such overweening nonsense.
Too funny. Yeah, it's getting pretty bad these days. I'm glad there's Nostr and OrangePillApp. By the way, I love Bitcoin Audible and AI Unchained. Good work!
But Nostr is Hard π€£
I'm glad you documented this. So many processes online are this way and it hurts my soul
Ugh, I experience this once in a while and wonder how people put up with it... and they say nostr is hard pshhh π€·ββοΈ

now do this for nests on an iphone without having anything previously set up
You set this up one time and you can use it on all pages that support it.
had like 3-4 blokes give up on the sign up process and nests itself, bc they weren't able to sign in, and they couldn't send texts in the chat nor come up on the stage without it
*laughcries in Tor*
Leave all Meta products
Thank god I ditched these two a long time ago ππ
Now, try setting up a new Twitter account... I had to, for work. And they make you jump through so many hoops. You even have to pay for your own SMS verification now!

Itβs been this way for far too long. I hope our children find a better way.
I have 15 email accounts that I use pretty regularly, and have them in thunderbird. I never have any problem checking my email or sending from any of the accounts. None are gmail. Why did you choose to use gmail for your email addresses?
In my experience gmail has the best features for day to day business email management. Sorting, taging, automating, autoresponding, synchronizing across multiple devicesβ¦
we will obsolete them
It has become a nightmare. Surprisingly, some people don't even use ad-blockers these days. How can you navigate the web in that way is a mystery to me π

Yo!
YES. I hate it so much.
I appreciate those saying βNostr fixes thisβ but the part it doesnβt really fix (at the moment, anyway) is that emails are like this.
I have several email addresses that are not Gmail and most of them I no longer use, but they are used in account recovery. So every once in a while, I have to trek across two or three email accounts hunting for stupid codes.
You are not alone π
I added TOTP 2FA and removed phone numbers and devices from Google knowledge. Makes me a lot happier when I have to use a Google identity. My TOTP stuff doesn't need a separate app as my Password Manager hardles TOTP just fine (bitwarden, protonpass, keepassxc).
Deleted my old FB account somewhere during COVID madness when I tired of the rampant propaganda, shouting down and censorship. Decided to sign back up 8 months ago for business reasons only. Though I jumped through their hoops they still suspended the account in 2 weeks saying they thought I was a bot. More back and forth.
Compared to what it was at its heydey, even in groups I used to enjoy, it is a sterile annoying ghost town now. The marketplace has some legs. Some business area centric groups and hobby groups get some leads and mileage still I guess. But not much there to put up with the abuse for.
Thanks for making this journey so much fun π€©π₯³π§‘
