Hello all,

Just signed up and either I am blind and not seeing this (which could be possible) or it's not there.

How to we enable two factor authentication for our user accounts?

Using just a userid and password for authentication nowadays is not as secure as we would like.

The weak link is located between the keyboard and the chair.

Just use a strong password and you'll be fine.

Are there any plans to deploy 2FA here on Poal?

No plan and not necessary.

Thanks for answering my questions.

While strong passwords are a good solution, modern social networks need to be using 2FA to protect user accounts.

Gab, Minds, Bitchute are all using 2FA.

What's the reasoning on not using 2FA?

Poal doesn't host private data. All accounts are public and users are solely responsible of what personal data they decide to share.

Yeah, I get that. Just thought it was odd that 2FA wasn't available.

Thanks.
