Bah! Authy discontinues their desktop app :(

 I used to love Authy. USED TO.

...until today when I saw this announcement:

Lame. See their full announcement here.

Since I will never abandon Linux, it's time to say goodbye to Authy.

There aren't many options that support both Linux and Android so here's my short list:

• AuthPass (feels a bit unpolished)
• Ente Auth (Linux AppImage portable app is broken at the moment, but the *.deb/*.rpm works great)
• Locker (free up to 3 devices)
• Bitwarden (2FA requires the Premium tier which costs $10/year)

P.S. Transferring my 2FA tokens from Authy to an alternative isn't straightforward since Authy's proprietary data format doesn't allow exporting or importing from other apps so I need to go into every 2FA platform I use, disable 2FA, then re-enable 2FA to enroll with my new option.

Lame redux :( :(

Fortunately, there's a clever workaround called authy-export (just make sure to include a plus sign when entering your country code even though the prompt says digits only; otherwise, you'll get a "context deadline exceeded" error).
