Is SMS 2FA broken/degraded for anyone else? (lemmy.stuart.fun)

I had an issue logging into Twitch last night for the first time in a while. I just didn't get any 2FA messages delivered to me, until about 12 hours later when I was asleep and they were probably long invalidated. and now suddenly I can't log in to my MVD either. Apparently there's some sort of SMS short+long code outage (according to the twilio status page in North America, which is mildly infuriating when this is already shown to be a pretty sketchy 2FA mechanism, at least theoretically.

Just curious if anybody else has noticed issues or if that's just me. And also, I really hate SMS 2FA.

Good to know. I'll set that up once I can actually log in. I haven't messed with my account in years but I definitely would have used something else if it'd been available when I set up.
