What are yall using as an alternative?

[–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

TOTP or Signal, depending on the use-case

Any examples on what could cause the preference?

[–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Usually signal for communication, totp for 2fa. I've as of yet seen only one site that sends 2fa codes through signal.
