@dansup sorry, but most likely no. If it’s for 2-factor authentication, phone/SMS-based ones have also been shown to be less secure as well as they are susceptible to SIM-jacking attempts.

Mastodon already has built-in app-based 2FA support, and I’m already using it for my account. There’s no need to use mobile phones for this.

@eonity This would only be used for registration, no plans to support SMS 2FA

@dansup still no. I believe there are better ways to screen out spammers than providing a number. Besides, pretty sure the spammers will figure out a way to work around the requirement.
