Now that authy has fucked us over with this, what should I move my 2fa codes into, any recommendations?
Unfortunately I can't use aegis on iOS/windows, does keepass have this functionality?
I like 1Password's built in MFA support, if it's a really sensitive account I use Google Authenticator because I haven't bothered researching better local alternative
Edit: Going to try Aegis for the more sensitive logins, looks like what I'm looking for
You are not any more secure with google authenticator for 2fa, are you?
Possibly not now that it saves your codes to your google account (it didn't use to), but it made me uncomfortable for my password manager to have both factors together to log into something like my bank or root AWS account. So you'd have to compromise two different places to get in
