End of Life for Twilio Authy Desktop App
I use open source Raivo OTP [1] on iOS and then on my computers with Apple Silicon I use the same iOS app instead of their desktop because it sinks better.

Ask HN: If a password manager stores your 2FA token is it still 2FA?
It's redundant having the two together. I suppose it still has the nicety of 'unphishable logins'. Personally though, I have a separate KeepassXC DB with all my 2FA stuff there. I use the Raivo OTP[0] app for TOTP. I would only open my 2FA DB when trying to recover a lost/damaged/stolen device with my Raivo OTP creds in it.

GitHub will disable non-2FA accounts?
otpauth:// is a de-factor standard, since Google Authenticator uses it: https://github.com/google/google-authenticator/wiki/Key-Uri-...

Creating 2fa with pyotp
Random question if you're using TOTP why not just give the user the secret when signing up as a Google Authenticator URI encoded in a QR code? Then you won't need to futz around with sending it to them afterwards. You can even use a library like qrcode.js so you don't generate the barcode server side either.
- why are all the totp secrets different styles?

Does changing an email that has TOTP setup affect the "secret"?

Twilio, the people who own Authy, got hacked
If we're talking about the encrypted Authy TOTP secrets and IF they get cracked or guessed, Authy does store the email in the name of the item. Having the name, service and the secret within the QR code's URI is normal and the standard for TOTP. The only thing the hackers won't have is the password.
