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?

There's no 2FA on poal and we aren't interested in your phone number.

2FA can be done with an App such as Enpass Password manager or a email with a logon code.

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

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

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

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

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?

Yeah - I wouldn't consider SMS 2FA to be real 2FA. Poal could really use OTP 2FA though..
