From 2acd1b17ad94536e4a0504087adcd9dc936896ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christophe Besson Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2026 23:33:17 +0200 Subject: docs: a browser is not linked as a device A browser keeps no identity between connections, so a key approved for it is gone by the next one: the guide, the design and the interface no longer offer it. With browser access off, the application and the command-line client open the account's groups; the linking form, shown in the application only, now says "this computer".
