Me: *tries to log into my gmail account with my username and password*
Google: SECURITY ALERT! SECURITY ALERT! Someone tried to sign in to your account with the correct password. We have blocked this obvious imposter. Please log in with your username and password to find out more
Seriously though, what the actual and entire fuck?
@ghost_bird I mean, if I'm not misremembering, birdsite will show a "please confirm this was you" box in your notifications after logging into a new session, and expect you to confirm it... from the new session you just logged into 🤦
@ghost_bird Oh wow, I'd overlooked the "blocked" part...
@joepie91 This is just straight-up “right credentials but we’re still not letting you in”, though. My best guess is they don’t like me trying to use the same device for work and home accounts - but who knows?
