I have never not been confused when logging into matrix, I signed up clicking a link at work, now if I want to use an app it asks for some server name that has nothing to do with the sever I signed up on (chat.mozilla.org vs mozilla.modular.im vs vector.im?)

When I do manage to login I get asked to verify my login and when I click to verify just to get rid of the popup it asks me to verify with a security code which if I remember right was one of those "here is 100 character string for you to write down and store in your vault" type situations.

Slack doesnt fare much better, every few weeks when the token expires I have to play "whats the domain for this slack that I literally only need to login and is permanently hidden otherwise"

I dont enjoy being sentimental and "get off my grass", but its seems sad how less impressive but more complicated tech these days
