  Why? What’s wrong with Authy? I use it, Proton and Bitwarden. I could consolidate everything into Proton, but I’m concerned about having everything with one vendor.

      I wish there was a good alternative to YouTube. I’ve been meaning to host a Peertube instance but that process is really not as straightforward as it should be if they want the platform to gain widespread adoption

    Not op, but for me the main problem with Authy is that it is owned by an American company.

    It’s not the worst offender, but any American company is subject to the whims of the current administration. As an example, we’re currently seeing how Americam sanctions lock people out of their Microsoft accounts at the International Court.

    I’ve slowly been moving over my 2FA codes to Aegis.
