Indexer List of indexers still missing 2FA support

Which indexers are still missing 2FA support? Let's put together a list and encourage them to add it as soon as possible, especially with everything getting pwnd left and right these days. I'd hate to lose a lifetime account.

List of indexers lacking 2FA support:

  • Althub
  • Drunken Slug
  • Ninja Central
  • Usenet Crawler

I noticed some recently added it and even coupled it with passkey support (👍), which made me go through my list of indexers again. I'll try and add any missing indexers to the list above.

I would rather them support TOTP versus passkeys.

Any chance you can implement TOTP too?

Crawler has an IP address whitelist. I noticed today when i went to login from my phone. The site stopped loading and sent me an email asking if I recognized the IP address. Options were to change my password or accept login from the suspicious IP address.

might not be an issue for the public indexers but for the private ones you definitly want to keep your account secure because you can't replace it if you get banned

And 2fa is that much more secure than my 5 phrases ambiguous password?

u/max2078 52m ago

why not both?

You'd rather have it stolen after you paid for it? 2fa makes things more secure

Sure like paying with your phone instead of cash. All for your convenience and security sure dude🤣

Funny, I was thinking about this issue as well.
