I’m a long time Dropbox user and had no idea what Paper is (it’s a collaborative document editing thing). I can’t recall ever seeing it as part of the Dropbox brand or anyone using it. I might have even been interested in using it… Is this just me or did they really fail to market this product big time?

I am one of the victims. Only noticed something is wrong today, Raivo on my iPhone got renamed to Raivo Debug and repeatedly crashed on start.

I've updated the app - what could go wrong - and it seems like I am one of the unlucky ones that got their 2FA codes wiped forever.

There was no option shown for recovery that others mentioned here, and they did not ask for money either.

Now I am going through the pain of recovering each one of my dozens of accounts one-by one and moving 2FA codes to 1Password (and 1Passwords own 2FA to Google Authenticator on my iPhone). Quite ironically, I've switched to Raivo in an attempt to use fewer Google products.

I would like to report this to Apple (although they did review and approve all revisions - sounds like very little fu*ks they give), but not sure how. The report categories are "Request a refund, Report a quality issue, Report a scam or fraud, Report offensive abusive content, Report illegal content". I've tried "Report a quality issue" (closest to my situation) but then I get "Reporting not available".

> UX/UI is terrible and not user friendly

The Hacker News UX/UI is one of the best among the websites I regularly visit!

Only found news pieces in German about this, sorry.

tl;dr: Authorities investigate against Berlin based car sharing company Miles, suspecting a parking fee fraud of up to 30 million Euros against the state of Berlin, the practice may have been in place since 2019.

Thanks for asking. The reasons for residency are: a) the team has zero resources or experience with the visa application and sponsoring process b) we want someone that can start within a few weeks.

Reason for EU/EFTA: easier sorting out taxation and labor law compliance.

We also assume we will enough candidates meeting this requirement in the first round. Should that be proven to be wrong, we might later loosen the criteria.

I hope this clarifies.
