Copy the link on the 2FA installation link button in your Lemmy account settings and put in the
secret=value inside the Secret Key (required) field of 2FAS (heads up, it's going to be fairly long), and under additional info you need to change the Algorithm toSHA256. Everything else stays the same.Another way would be to use an addon (ex: on Firefox) to generate a QR code from your desktop browser by right-clicking the 2FA installation link and clicking QR code from link, then scan the QR code into 2FAS.
Always make sure you have a backup of your 2FAS data, either local or cloud-based.
