FOSStastic apps are everywhere! I’ve been highlighting projects I’ve come across during my journey into #Linux and #FOSS. Please SUPPORT your favorite projects
App Number 20: 2FAS - Free and open source two factor authentication app
Dump your proprietary TOTP authenticator app and go #OpenSource! Plus, #2FAS auto-fills the code for you when you install the browser extension!

Gut: Die #2FAS-App hat eine Browser-Erweiterung, um schnell TOTPs auf Websites einzufügen.
Nicht so gut: Man muss das Handy trotzdem in die Hand nehmen und die Anzeige im Browser freigeben.
Da kann ich mir das auch sparen und den Code direkt weiter vom Handy abtippen.
Midway through switching from Authy to 2FAS. Turns out Authy collects a bit of analytical data and associates with your user name and phone number.
2FAS is open source and free. Willing to give it a try. Worst part is having to remove 2FA from each account and then re-add it. And then copy the new set of backup / recovery codes.
Not to put any attention on the bird site but Google Authenticator is trending
Just wanna say, I gave #2FAS a try, and it is so much better than Google Authenticator IMO. (Both are smartphone apps BTW.)
Refreshingly easier to use; actually has some form of a backup; and you can choose to unlock with PIN and biometrics.

Lots of #Twitter users misinterpreting the announcement about #TwoFactorAuthentication and paid #TwitterBlue accounts.
#2FA IS STILL FREE. YOU CAN STILL BE SECURE. You just have to use a #TOTP app like #2FAS (https://2fas.com) or a #PasswordManager that does it like @bitwarden.
You can also use a physical key like a @yubico #YubiKey or a #passkey for even better #security.

Is anyone using 2FAS on iOS? How is it?
I don't use Apple devices but I'd like to recommend an authenticator to some friends who haven't yet left the birdsite... I use Aegis on Android and would be looking to recommend something for iOS that is similarly free, non-dependent on a cloud login and able to backup to a file location on the device. #2FA #2FAS #Twitter
