Keybase CEO talking about Slack being compromised and how it affected them https://keybase.io/blog/slack-incident

> Though Slack originally told me 2FA would provide "a bit of extra security," these new data show otherwise. If the attackers inject server code, 2FA or U2F or any Web-based security practice does little.

2FA helps protect against password reuse, not much else.

@lnxw48a1 @lnxw48a1 That’s frankly why I think Facebook/Instagram/WhatsApp started failing recently. The purity/litmus tests were collapsing in on themselves to cause some self-destruction. Sometimes you can’t be “pure” enough to meet all demands by the crazies these days.

Didn’t we have a single character instance of *.status.net back in the ancient days? That might be the only pure-enough social network in times to come.

@Maltimore @thomas_rader @switchingsocial I've tried some others available in F-droid, but always moved back to K-9 for one reason or another. It's not super elegant, but it has worked solidly for me when I've needed email on my phone. (I don't currently use email on the phone at all.)
