Just got some new and shiny #Yubikey. Thanks #Cloudflare for the offer in October ☺️ took some effort setting up a new domain etc. but here they are 🎉
~ 17 EUR / Yubikey 5C NFC
Got my #YubiKey starter set for a low price, thanks to #Cloudflare - https://blog.cloudflare.com/making-phishing-defense-seamless-cloudflare-yubico/
Please activate 2 factor authentication #2FA. You can either use an app like #GoogleAuthenticator or #MicrosoftAuthenticator or a hardware dongle like the #YubiKey or the #NitroKey. Best probably is to use the hardware key and have the app as backup. Thanks for helping to make this Mastodon instance a safer place.

Recently bought a #YubiKey 5 to use with my #Linux desktop.
Now I can automatically decrypt the filesystem just by plugging in the key during boot, and login / sudo just by tapping the button! No more typing passwords, but everything is still encrypted and secure.
A little disappointed that Intel Macs can't use it with FileVault during boot, but the Mac already has a fingerprint reader so I wasn't planning to use the YubiKey with it anyway.
