Ah yes, locked accounts. Something that happens if you try to log in from another machine or from the same computer but abroad, by using the correct username and password on a browser with the same useragent and cookie fingerprint.

    Recently I started to sign up for Bluesky - mostly to read, not post. But sign up required a phone number. That was a dealbreaker for me. Then someone else said it was a good way to recover locked accounts. They didn't like that Mastodon does not ask for a phone number. So, what do you think? Is requiring a phone number for new accounts a good thing? This question is only about social media, not bank accounts, etc. Please boost for more responses! :boost: #Bluesky #Mastodon #SocialMedia [ ] Yes, phone # can help you recover a lost account. [ ] No, I restrict who gets my phone number. [ ] I don't care either way. [ ] Other? Please add a reply below!
