Favorite 2-factor authenticator?
(lemmy.world)
I always use Aegis. No problems so far and easy backups.
Anything that works with 1Password is fine by me.
I use FREEOTP+. It's on F-Droid and Gstore. It easily exports to JSON and key URI formats. Has a dark mode.
Supports Steam, too!
I'm a happy Aegis user but there are other similar FOSS apps that I don't remember their names you might wanna check
1password
Since I got Yubikey 5, I ended up using Yubico Authenticator. It’s a bit of a PITA since it requires unlocking with the key at each use (NFC or USB), but I grew to actually appreciate that extra layer of protection. The OTP accounts are actually stored on the key (I believe up to 32 per key), so it is highly portable.
App is decent and available for every OS, including Linux.
Keepass2Android. I store everything in a KeePass database synced with OneDrive. I like KeePass because it serves as the storage for all my passwords, OTP, and even SSH keys because it can act as an SSH KeyAgent.
Microsoft Authenticator.
Does the Microsoft authenticator sync the secrets? E.g. if I get a new device will they transfer automatically?
they may have added that recently, cause i wanna say it didn't but on my last phone (2 months ago) it did
Yes. But you need to enable it. It doesn't do anything remote by default.
