    On a side note, I also need to go through all my Authy 2FA keys and refresh them because Authy is too locked down to work on anything but a “real” android phone.

    Oof. One of the things I love about Aegis is that I can export and import encrypted MFA configs, to recover from a lost or reinstalled phone.

      Yeah, I really shot myself in the foot when I originally went with Authy. I remember looking around for an alternative to Google Authenticator back in ~2014 when I got my first smartphone, and Authy was recommended at the time. Had I been more worried about FOSS back then I might’ve picked a better solution.

        I feel you. I went months (or year?) living with several different auth apps, because I didn’t want to deal with redoing them.

        I’m happier now that almost everything I still use works with Aegis.
