Twilio has finally killed off its Authy for Desktop application, forcibly logging users out of the desktop application.
minus-squaresolrize@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·1年前Good riddance to Authy. I hated sites that insisted on people using that app.
minus-squaretiramichu@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-21年前How did any sites insist in Authy? Was it not just a generic MFA app and so users could choose any they liked?
minus-squaresolrize@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·1年前No there were some that only took Authy, that’s why it was such a pain. Twilio itself might have been one that later relented and enabled regular TOTP.
