EU tells Apple to open everything up to its rivals
I love F-Droid and try to use apps from there whenever possible.
I did recently discover that andOTP is no longer maintained, though. I've switched to Aegis since.

Ask HN: How do you deal with TOTP 2-factor auth?
I use andOTP[0] which auto-exports an encrypted backup to a local folder, which is then synced with Syncthing[1] to my NAS.
It's seamless and doesn't need an internet connection.

What OTP app do you use?
I used FreeOTP before that, which is also fine. I switched because maintenance had been fairly uncommon and there were some minor issues bugging me, but it seems to have picked up again recently, and it's backed by Red Hat as an entity for better or for worse. andOTP is officially deprecated, so I recommend switching to either of those.

Aegis Authenticator – Secure 2FA App for Android
I was happily using andOTP but seems like it has been unmaintained since June - https://github.com/andOTP/andOTP.
I wish F-Droid or Play Store had a feature like GitHub's 'Archived' to inform users.
- TOTP for 2FA is incredibly easy to implement. So what's your excuse?

Overwatch 2 Will Record Voice Chat, Requires a Phone Number to Play
You can use whatever 2FA you want, but you need to extract the secret key for it using some scripts. i did it a while ago and i have both blizzards and steams 2fa on Aegis on android, also works in KeepassXC. I think the 2fa app needs to have support for it but it works. https://github.com/andOTP/andOTP/wiki/Shared-secrets

This might be a daft question but If I need to restore my phone/get a new phone and I need to sign into Google, how can I do this if I don't have access to the Bitwarden Authenticator app yet? Thanks
I would switch to andOTP since it allows you to export the keys.

Are there good alternatives to Google for 2FA?
Bottom line is, why in the world would you use a mysterious closed source app when there are better options out there? 2FAS is one of the better ones. Aegis Authenticator is another good choice for Android devices.

Amazon Account with unauthorised purchases, did my google passwords get leaked
You can enable 2fa with amazon I suggest you do that with a 2fa app like aegis, that will greatly increase the security of your account and require the 2fa code to login to your account.

Ask HN: How do you deal with TOTP 2-factor auth?
I use Aegis[1] on mobile and OTPClient[2] on my computer, both are regularly backed up on change.
I do not use the TOTP feature in my password manager (though I can split it to new DB in keepassXC) as feel it will defeat the purpose of 2FA.
