This is what happened with FFMpeg when Google was trying the same thing to promote their models. If the code is good, and doesn’t put unnecessary burden on the reviewer, then that’s great. But when the patches are sloppy or the reviews are overwhelming, it doesn’t help the project, it hinders it.

Ahh didn’t see the Coca Cola logo at first, I thought it was the ketchup boxes you hook up to the pump at the self service station.

Noto Sans Mono for me

Their API documentation being a shit show is an understatement. Nothing is consistent, or complete in the documentation. The forums are a better way to determine what is and isn’t available based on people poking and prodding to actually figure out how the API works.

How does Lemmy prevent this?

And if you comply with unjust laws, then it’s way harder to challenge them in the courts.

This is one of the most sensible comments in the thread. The law is the problem. This is something which should have been self regulated by websites themselves, but Meta lobbied for laws like this so they wouldn’t have to police it. The law making this mandatory for everyone when this should be a parental control is the issue.

IMO the benefit and curse is you could fork it, maintain it, patch it yourself, etc if you wanted, but then its a full time job keeping it up to date with changes. As others have pointed out, this is a decisive change, so a fork probably wouldn’t be a solo project, but the bifurcation in development would be a large impact, slowing development in other fixes and features.

Thank you, not sure why OP didn’t cross-post the original post here?

He really did: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/nyregion/german-tourist-new-york-lawsuit-walmart-nypd.html

Ok, I think I get what you’re saying. You mean have a different form input without the password, like how it’s done here: https://eu.app.orcasecurity.io/login? I guess that’s one way to do it, but it’s not really intuitive from a user perspective, since the first thing you see is a password field, and then think you don’t have access because you don’t have a password. This one comes to mind because I have had to tell people to click the tab for the email only field, not email and password.

Not sure I’d take design inspiration from Microsoft of all places. Also https://login.live.com/ has the same workflow email -> continue -> password. Not sure where you’re seeing Log in with SSO option.

No need, just use Forgot Password for every login. No password manager needed /s

I can imagine that the sites want to validate that you still have access to the email associated with the account, and asking people to check their settings is annoying, and they know no one will do it. I can also imagine that sites want to know as much about you as possible, don’t want you to be using burner email addresses, and are probably selling the fact that your email address can still receive email to marketing firms who compile that info.

This is because of Enterprise Single Sign On. You can try this for yourself by going to https://gmail.com/ and enter the email of a public person at a large org, for example the CEO of Doordash (tony@doordash.com). After you enter the email, you get sent to Doordash’s employee portal to authenticate. Based on the email you provide, Gmail has to figure out if you need to provide a password to gmail itself or if the email authenticates another way.

NEVER EVER INSTALL INTUNE ON YOUR PERSONAL DEVICE!!!

A bunch of people today had their phones wiped and eSIM deleted from their personal phones because they hooked it up to their corporate intune, which got hacked: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2026/03/iran-backed-hackers-claim-wiper-attack-on-medtech-firm-stryker/

In addition to letting the website owner know about the issue, I would reach out to Troy Hunt with your evidence, so the data can be loaded into Have I Been Pwned and the affected people notified.

This isn’t isolated to tech and is how bigotry persists
