I think it's fairly important to note that they're NOT currently using the microservice for the 2FA, and they're NOT using bcrypt right now. The blog post states they're "working towards" these changes, they're not currently in place. It's fairly unlikely that they're using the same secret key as the one they found on the server, but it's fair to assume that they are still using salted SHA-2 for your passwords and the same 2FA setup right now. They likely won't roll out the major changes until they roll out the "new and improved" Linode dashboard they're coming up with.

The article didn't state that. The article stated they are rolling out soon. The new dashboard will be an open source project. So you'll know when that gets released. There is no link to the project yet so assume that part isn't started yet. So the microservices should be released in a timely manner. Let's hope with the new focus on transparency if there are any delays they will keep us posted.

  Isn't that exactly what I said? o.O I said they will "likely" get rolled out with the new dashboard, not that the article said they would lol. But, they never stated when it would happen anyways, so "delays" aren't really a thing when there's no deadlines.
