Upgraded to Lemmy 0.19.0 - Double check your 2FA settings!

3 years ago by jonah to c/meta

The full changelog has been linked if you are interested, but I want to call out an important update (emphasis mine):

Previously 2FA was enabled in a single step which made it easy to lock yourself out. This is now fixed by using a two-step process, where the secret is generated first, and then 2FA is enabled by entering a valid 2FA token. It also fixes the problem where 2FA can be disabled without passing any 2FA token. As part of this change, 2FA is disabled for all users. This allows users who are locked out to get into their account again.

Probably not the way I would've handled it, but it's ok. Please re-enable 2FA on your account as soon as possible :)

This update broke my Jerboa login. The app crashes whenever I attempt to log in.

I was having the same problem. Clearing my cache and logging in again seems to have fixed it.

I couldn't see my posts and comments in the Eternity app - clearing data and cache and logging in again fixed it. Thanks!

Same for me. Clearing Storage and cache hasn't helped.

Great news! Thanks for letting us know. That's definitely... an approach to fixing 2FA :D

AFAIK I know, outbound federation is still broken right? Just checking in since it's been a few weeks.

I think there may be problems. Looks like there is a bug with 0.19.0 that may be affecting us. I made a post in a local sub and checked later from a login to a different instance and I don't see the new post.

0.19.0 has a critical bug where sending outgoing activities can stop working. The bug is fixed in this version. It also fixes the “hide read posts” user setting, fixes a problem with invalid comment paths, and another fix for private message reports.

The question we are all asking. Hard to participate without federation.
