Honestly this sucks and is going to be a big pain for anyone who misses the transition.

Anyway, I'm me over there too.

[-] blashork@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago

username on hextube matches this account, blashork

If we wanted to synchronize hexbear and hextube accounts, is there any estimation of the difficulty?

What's the reason to prevent anonymous users from viewing hextube?

I regularly used to view anonymously when I was feeling antisocial but still wanted to read chat

I've never used matrix, do I need a matrix account to participate there or does federation carry over?

[-] CARCOSA@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

you do need a matrix account:

Element is a messaging app that lets you talk to people over the Matrix protocol.

To get started, check out this link, where you can choose to either download Element for your platform or, if on a computer, open it in a browser.

The instructions that follow are for the desktop application and the web application, but the process is similar on all apps:

Press "Create Account"

We host our own Matrix server, so if you want you can change matrix.org to chapo.chat.

This is completely optional; users who sign up with a matrix.org username can still talk to people with chapo.chat username.

(Note: It is chapo.chat, not hexbear.net. Also, registrations aren't always open on chapo.chat; if they're not, just create an account on matrix.org)

Fill in a username and password

Hit register, and you're done!

You can also use https://github.com/Nheko-Reborn/nheko or

https://matrix.org/ecosystem/clients/cinny/

all clients can be found here: https://matrix.org/ecosystem/clients/

that's a weird reason to do this, considering anyone can make an account on hexbear, post the bear minimum (pun intended) and then make a hextube account and view anything anyway.

this is just a bad idea, linking two different accounts I'd imagine would make for some ability to track from nefarious sources, similar to how triangulation works. input from someone who actually has knowledge about this shit would be appreciated.

admittedly i just want to be able to post as "sailor garbage" or "regular garbage" or whatever the fuck i want my name to be whenever i want to change it. especially since I can't just be garbage anymore because of this stupid lemmy bullshit

[-] someone@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

My username is the same as here, just "someone".

[-] Vingst@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

how come? seems like a privacy concern, no? i'd like a more satisfactory explanation and justification for this

also, please implement a reset email service on hextube. as of now it's very easy for the tube to confuse password managers and lose passwords with no way to recover it besides asking itsPina.
