Damn, this was going to be my workaround for using authy now they're discontinuing the desktop app inexplicably.
Host a vaultwarden for free somewhere
Aegis, Bitwarden (now has 2FA in free plan), KeePass...
Can confirm KeePassXC works. But Aegis is android only and Bitwarden TOTP code generation is still paid right now.
Bitwarden TOTP code generation is still paid
not if you self host
They allow it now? Last I checked even self hosted bitwarden needs a license for premium features. You could always use vaultwarden instead if you're gonna self host.
yes it is vaultwarden that i was thinking of, not bitwarden selfhosted. my bad. i actually just spun up a new vaultwarden last night using docker compose. its got a long list of environment variables but still makes it super easy to set up in a flash

Keepassxc works great for totp on a functional level. Keep in mind that your second factor should ideally be separated from your first, for better security. Otherwise the 2nd factor does not do much if the password database is compromised.
In case people are looking for keepassxc "clients" on android, id recommend keepassdx.
bitwarden now has free otp??
this information got to me ~2h too late. i just switched from authy to 2FAS
Bitwarden premium is worth the money. It's literally $10/yr.
Free OTP is only on self-hosted servers.
I tried to use it for a few apps but the WSA susbsystem takes up too much RAM for me.
You could use BlueStacks. It's a bit ad laiden, but it's not bad.
Hard disagree. They (and most other Android emus) are sketchy as hell, I believe using them for anything authentication related would be dangerous
waydroid, idk if it works on windows, i've only used it linux
Your point is so good that I down voted MYSELF. Thanks! I may stop using it now. I used it back when it felt more unshitty, but it's crept shittier and shittier and it does feel super sketchy now.
VM all the way I suppose.

BlueStacks is so fucking heavy though. I only have it so I can view a single camera from my desktop, but it's amazing how much ram it gobbles up while running.
Same actually. I use it to view a cam. It takes many resources and hobbles the system.
