• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Got it

[jade minnow]

Why offering people to "hit you up" when the literal point of #1035199133436354600 is for people to ask for help? Why they're supposed to ask you instead, and not do what #❓｜how-to-get-help says?
And why don't you just go around the open threads and help people, like everyone else?

[river meadow]

No offense, I'm new here; that's why I apologize. Thanks for updating me.

Would you be able to assist me with something, if you don't mind?

[tulip relic]

Shoot

[river meadow]

Where you from?

[tulip relic]

The UK. What do you mean by "secure account and credential recovery" ? Why do account providers trust you, or do you do forensic recovery on physical devices?

[river meadow]

By “secure account and credential recovery,” I’m referring to digital recovery methods rather than physical forensic work. My role as a web developer focuses on implementing secure flows for users who have lost access—things like password reset systems, multi-factor authentication, and account verification processes. Providers trust this approach because it follows best practices for data protection and security standards rather than attempting to pull data off physical devices.

[tulip relic]

How on earth's that work without access to the back end or password hashes?

Oh I see sorry, you're building the systems yourself, or for account providers, not for users who've lost passwords.

[river meadow]

I use the back end mostly because not everyone is willing to give out their personal credentials.

[tulip relic]

Sure. Just from the way your profile is written, it sounded like you could help users regain access to any lost account. I would describe what you do as back end web dev, specialising in implementing authentication flows, especially for recovery.

[river meadow]

Yes that's right James

[tulip relic]

Cool. Have you started supporting Passkeys yet?

[river meadow]

Yes, passkeys are supported now. They provide a more secure and convenient way to log in without relying on traditional passwords.

[tulip relic]

Thankyou wikipedia

[river meadow]

Wikipedia?

[tulip relic]

I already know what they are thankyou. That's why I asked you about your experience with them.

[river meadow]

Okay I get

Where are you from, if you don't mind me asking?

[tulip relic]

FFS. Scroll up. Bye

[river meadow]

Bye
