Hello! I’m in the process of slowly de-googling my life and taking my privacy more seriously.

I currently use Google Authenticator for 2fa at the moment.

I am currently dreading swapping those to Aegis, which requires a password every time I want to use it (that’s very inconvenient, to be honest) while with Google’s I can just open the app and get the necessary code right away; no password required.

Should I just stop being lazy, suck it up, and make the switch? I know I’m being a bit of a baby.

Edit: Okay, apparently I can use my fingerprint scanner instead, which is a LOT better, so I’ll stop being a lazy shit and do the swap tomorrow. Cheers!

Final Edit: I made the switch to Aegis. Already made a backup, and I have Biometrics setup. Ty everyone!

    I use a yubi key to do my static passwords for otp apps like this.

    I think it’s 38 characters long.

    I wish ageis uses keys or webauth but that requires online functionality.
