Microsoft decides it will be the one to choose which secure login method you use
hmm, Authenticator is open source (https://github.com/mattrubin/Authenticator). 2FA is also available in open source key manager program such as KeePass.
When it comes to 2FA, I would rather trust open source apps vs the ones made by Google/MS.

Just wondering if anyone has ever heard of or used this 2FA authenticator, Authenticator. https://github.com/mattrubin/Authenticator

Will Plasma 6 still keep X11 compatibility?
Over there, they got pissed about people constantly bugging them about it and closed the bug with the last comment reading:
-
Help a noob out, please.
for the internet, use a password manager like keepassxc with a strong password.

KDE Plasma 6.0 Is Enabling Wayland by Default
Another regression is that KeePassX/C AutoType doesn't work with Wayland, so now instead of a simple CTRL+V in KeePassXC, I have to separately copy and paste the user and the pass.

Bitwarden Adds Support for Passkeys
That's really a shame, I know keepassxc has (recently) added support for passkeys, but does it also support import/exporting them? I only found this comment[0] in the github issue.
