Yeah, laughing at the customers (who were making a good decision to make sure they had 2FA enabled) is kind of a dick move.

But from the perspective of the company fucking up that bad it's funny.

I use their phone app. I sure have a weekend chore to get the fuck off that app.

Yeah, I told everyone at my company about it 2 months ago. I moved everything to bit warden.

I’ve been moving over to Okta’s app. Wondering if I should pick something else though. All of my credentials are in 1Password, but I don’t want my 2FA in the same place.

Well to give you another option, Bitwarden made a standalone authenticator app that is presumably secured with the same care as the regular Bitwarden password manager app.

Nice, thanks! This is what I was looking for. Something that handled solely 2FA.

Aegis on Android is also very nice (and open source).

Yes, I wouldn't know where to move to.
