I believe Lemmy has rate limits for requests by default, so it’s not as easy to brute force a password as you suggest. But something like this is always a good feature for additional security.

I think forcing the user to reset their password because someone is trying to guess their password probably doesn’t make sense unless they got it right. It would be annoying if a troll did this to your account.

Yes, but also additional security is good too. And you know it’s impossible to convince everyone to use 2FA, unfortunately.

I have taken a bit to realize this before too. Maybe the hamburger button could be highlighted better when the page is in that narrow layout?

have you tried clicking the hamburger menu in the top right?

Yea I don’t think it makes any sense to try to sort these items against each other. Maybe section headers would be nice too, a title for the Communities: section, etc?

I think if you do this, then the tabs for communities, users, and URL would no longer have the drop down to choose community because it’s meaningless for them. They probably wouldn’t have the “Top All Time” filter either. There could probably be more differences for each tab, maybe this is the way to go.

As far as I remember, the loading indicator disappears when the local search is finished and the search appears to be done, even when the remote search is continuing. This makes finding a new remote community pretty awkward.

When you do a search and it returns a mix of communities, posts, comments, users… They all sorta jumble together in weird ways. Maybe the content type of the search should not default to “All” maybe it should default to “Posts” or even just blank (forcing the user to choose).

Also the mixed results all jumble together, communities and users are tiny lines of text compared to posts and comments, maybe they need to have borders or more spacing. And maybe add more info next to communities and users.

I feel like this would be a moderation nightmare. Instant approval to use any instance just because you have an account on some other instance? You can just self host a troll instance and start logging in from everywhere else.

Also it breaks the community feeling of an instance. And I still don’t really see why this feature is so often requested to be honest.
