  • There are 2 benefits of using TOTP here:

    If an attacker gains access to your password, maybe through a keylogger or browser extension, the TOTP code will expire after a minute, and the attacker won’t be able to log in later.

    Using 2-factor authentication (in general) allows you to keep your login information on 2 separate devices, such as using your computer to store passwords, and your phone to generate TOTP codes. Most people (me included) will probably use 1 device for both though.













  • Right, that makes sense as well. What I was thinking is that the use of the accent colour shows which one is active, though it would probably be less confusing if this wasn’t done with an outline. See the KDE version for example:

    Screenshot of the KDE screen sharing portal, showing "Screens" and "Windows" tabs, where the selected tab has a horizontal accent colour line above it.

    Regarding keyboard navigation, I could see this working similarly to radio buttons, where the tab key selects the entire tab group, and tabs need to be navigated using the arrow keys. In this case I think it makes sense to put the focus border around only the selected option, and having the focus border follow the selected option when arrow keys are used. If this is the case, I think swapping the current version does make sense.






  • It’s gradually getting there. The settings redesign was introduced a few versions ago, and the online content menu redesign will hopefully land in the next version (and potentially replace the current content tab after that). I agree that the main menu redesign might be a while away though.


  • I believe it is the implementation of the tick system in Mesecons (which VoxeLibre redstone is based on) that is the issue, and I agree it makes it nearly useless. It is absolutely an issue with the mod, not the engine, but would probably require a big rewrite of the mod to fix (not that I’m familiar with the actual implementation of mesecons).
