  Bitwarden can do everything Authy can afaik

    It is a bad idea to have your password manager and 2FA be the same app though. You want to spread it around so one attack can’t break your logins.

      You aren’t wrong and I should rethink that. But BW is so damn handy.

      While that is true, the risk of someone brute forcing into an account of mine on the login side than on mine. That's what I use 2FA against. If they managed to break into my vault, they'd have broken into my Mailserver and whatnot, so....

      Good point.

      Is it realistic to self-host 2 Bitwarden, one for passwords, one for authentication?

      Or would splitting that between 2 Bitwarden logins work?

      I just throwing stuff at the wall, I haven’t thought either if these through yet.

    BitWarden can generate 2FA tokens? I don’t see any option for that on Android

      Vaultwarden can. Self hosting isn’t for everyone though.

        Given that the comment was a demand for self hostable Authy, I think they might wanna :P

      Need to pay for a subscription for TOTP. It’s like $10/year for the personal plan.

        Which is damn near cheap compared to other companies. I personally use dashlane (I know I know I should self host but I don’t trust myself for something as important as passwords) and that’s $60 for their premium package.

        I love my bitwarden but is it less secure to have all your eggs in one basket? That’s the main reason I’ve been using separate apps so far.

        Cool, I might check it out then. I knew I’d have to move off of authy eventually.

    Yeah, I already run Vaultwarden. But like others I don’t really want to combine my tokens and passwords.
