Showerthoughts

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

MODERATORS
Lemmy uses a SHA256 digest for its TOTP codes.
Basically every other service (and therefore most authenticator apps) use SHA1.
So although you provide the right secret, you get a different code because it's derived from a different hashing mechanism
Ooooh ok cool. Sadly I'm using MS Authenticator so I can't specify the type. I really don't want to migrate to another one so hopefully this gets fixed I know there is a ticket open on github.
My next question is this: I subscribed to the Technology community the other day. I went into my settings and did something that now won't let me see any posts in that community and can't fix it.
