    draft - Even though they fixed it, they still need to implement multiple user profiles in iOS for complete data segregation.

    Fyi, pixel phones have multiple user profiles, while iPhones and samsung do not. For that reason, I can only recommend the pixel8.

    "I have three Microsoft accounts (personal, work, and uni) it would be nice to have one identity with multiple accounts"

    I have a similar setup. Google One allows me to share storage across my multiple accounts.

  4. draft - i like multiple user profiles on pixel for app/data separation...however, there is an issue where you're in one profile sending out sms and you may not get replies to those until you log back into the "default" user account. and even then, your "sent" sms messages from the alt account don't "sync" over to the "default" or "other" accounts/profiles.

    so...apple/samsung...give us multiple user profiles on your phones, and fix the issue.

    believe me, i'd prefer if everyone used a web based platform like microsoft teams for trading messages and chat. it does a lot more. i like the ability to edit messages any time, adding images into previously sent messages, having it be web based, even google chat is almost as good, but they still need voice messages and also the ability to not be tied to a google account like ms teams isn't tied to a google account. anyway. blah. brb

  5. Fellow game devs, how do you handle user accounts (auth + data) for your games?

    Asking because I'm working on a bespoke solution, but want to have a Steam release in the future. I don't want my game requiring users to use Steam (or make any accounts if they so choose) to play my game, but I want to provide them with the best experience, through whatever platform they use (or not).

    Also #Godot.

  6. draft - so i kind of want to type about some personal stuff, but not really on this account, so i'm inclined to maybe create another account. but can i do it on the same instance. i like techhub because of the 1000 characters compared to 500. do any other instances have 1000 characters? even 750 would be better than 500. i mean, i guess 500 is ok too. which is in turn better, almost double than the paltry 280 that twitter gives us. hm.






  7. @gled - What is the #perspective related to these two; should/will the #userAccounts on the #Mastodon and #Peertube installations merge or be made (optionally?) mergeable, or stay independent for the foreseable future?

    Agreed, disabling #2FA - even just for the XMPP part - is not good.

    IMO, the main reason #XMPP is interesting in this context is the perspective of combining these two #socialMedia worlds with proper security / protection of our precious user account(s) (and by extension: #Reputation (!)).
