  • From my experience, you have to use google services for the 2fa to work on Yubikey. You can work around this by using a TOTP and storing it on the key. There is a Yubikey app that can read the tokens that doesn’t require google services. Another approach is make a separate profile that has a google account active on it and just keep those apps there to use the Yubikey on.

    Some banking apps require extra work in their settings permissions to get them to work. Try turning off some of the extra security measures for app in the app permissions settings. See if that can get them to work.

    Messaging is going to be broken unless both parties use an internet based messenger, like signal or iMessage. SMS is very restrictive. RCS may help fix this when it launched to iOS but it seems to break on graphene. Probably the same reason banking apps break.




  • Mostly their marketing practices. They are designed well but mostly designed to keep you locked in one way or another.

    For me, their desktop is not as intuitive as people make it seem and lacks simple shortcuts that most other desktops have.

    On mobile, its the restriction of customization and options. They are getting better at customizing but still limit you on options for anything outside of their apps. They claim to be private but follow similar practices as other companies, just in a more quite way with better PR.


  • No, nam is a placeholder for whatever is inputed into the function input by the user when the program is ran. Input prints to screen whatever you put () when you first call it. It expects something to then be inputted by the user when the program runs by prompting the user with the message in the (). Whatever the user inputs is then referred to by the variable, in this case “Chuck” was inputted.

    It will make a bit more sense when you start writing functions, you can return whatever results you want from calling a function. Those returns will be referred to by the variable you label it, word on the left of the =.

    In short, whatever is returned by a function is what is “saved” in the variable.
