So it was the birdsite. I didn't even know I had a birdsite account, must have gotten it years ago. Anywho someone got access and tried to hackmyshiz. So if you have a birdsite account and it's linked to Gmail, yeah. You might not want to do that. Use proton mail or a different address. Change over to a different mail account before changing your passwords n such. Use a burner. Xhitter cannot be trusted at all.
I screwed up. That was a mess.
@vo1de it's time to turn on two-factor (2FA) for every account you have and have unique, long passwords or passphrases for every account. Don't reuse passwords. I recently moved off Google everything, and now use Fastmail for my email, which is cool because it let's me use unique (throwaway) masked emails for every login. It's crazy out there, don't make it easy on lazy hackers!
@bfgreen id love to. But I use voip as phone and 2fa doesn't work with that. So I'm sneaky. I'll have to check out fastmail, proton was working alright. I dig the multiple throwaways, that's a good idea.
@vo1de also, Fastmail is fully integrated with 1Password to let you generate masked email addresses and complex, unique passwords when you fill out a form or register for any service. It's a killer combo that is secure and help stop spam!
@vo1de oh sure. I may even have a friend freebie code left - not 100% sure, I'll look. Everything costs money these days... and if it's free, then "you" are the product.
@bfgreen I'm so tired of being a product yo. So tired. But broke. So. Workarounds are nessicary, yoho.
@bfgreen dude, that's really awesome of you to offer. I'll hit you up when I have some extra cash for that. Dead broke atm. Working on it. That's a really nice offer, I appreciate it.
