@mloxton@med-mastodon.com Don't hold your breath, I don't think people will be queuing up for you. There's already an oversupply of humourless reply guys on this platform, and you're probably in the 90th percentile of the most boring ones among them.

@ploum@mamot.fr Pour le moment je peux encore me débrouiller sans Itsme. Sur mon laptop professional tout marche encore avec eID, mais seulement en Edge. Pas idéal, mais c'est mieux qu'installer un app sur mon téléphone privée.
