The minimum expectation for account security on any random web forum is a TOTP based second factor, but this is no random web forum. Just about every instance of the popular forum platform Discourse and many others offer modern account security and work well with 1Password.

It's no fun having your customers second-guess you choices of technology partners, but while something like the lack of dark mode is an example of a disappointing failure, this is almost unbelievable.

Hey again @AJCxZ0! 👋

We appreciate the requests for multi-factor and alternative authentication options. Migrating from our previous platform gives us the opportunity to add additional sign-in options that weren’t supported there.

We’re actively working to bring alternative sign-in options to the community and partnering with our platform provider to make that happen. We’ll share an update once these options go live.

Anthropic, the maker of the Claude AI, got a lot of bad press recently when they solicited job applications and stipulated that applicants must not use AI to assist them. 

1P creating a new forum that doesn’t use modern security is similarly ironic.

Building anticipation can be an effective strategy, but...

How can we support and encourage the folks who we trust are working on this?
