Twilio will abandon Authy desktop, a good opportunity to switch to an open-source app. That is if you manage to export the tokens from Authy. Without a convenient export, many users will be stuck.

The guides you can find online require an old versions of the desktop app. Is there a known way today? Do we know how/where Authy stores the secrets on-device?

This requires an old version of Authy Desktop. I'm on Linux and i cannot find this old version anywhere. They use snap.

You can work with the snap to do this, but agree it's bullshit. Try this method. Same concept though.
