    How? BitWarden has great 2FA, but is also a password manager with good integrations, group sharing, etc. Plus when you log in with it, it auto-copies the 2fa to clipboard.

    Assuming you’ve used both, so what does Aegis bring to the table? Wondering if I should try it.

      For the same reason you usually shouldnt store 2FA in the passwordmanager.
      Besides that Aegis has some features like automated (encrypted) backups when accounts are removed/added.
      Also can use multiple different 2FA protocols (even Steam when your phone has root).

  2fa only for paying customers, no? I mean, I pay because it’s dirt cheap for tge convenience they offer but still no free 2fa

    Bitwarden authenticator is free for non-paying customers too.

    2fa is free

      Than this is misleading

        Maybe a bit. They say “advanced” and specify 2FA via hardware keys.

      As if I would use a 3rd party to host my bitwarden data.

      Eitger 1st party or selfhost. But some unknown 3rd party? Way too risky.
