    my bank trys to force ‘2SV’ and tie it to my phone. I would much rather an email that I can access on ANY device.

    Don’t have your phone? Fucked

    Lost your phone? Fucked

    Got a new phone? Extra fucked

    I’d MUCH Rather use a normal authentication method rather then it be tied to texting me a dumb ass code.

      Yes I have long had disdain for email and sms based 2FA, but opensource compatible T-OTP I will happily adopt. My taxes with Canada have finally changed MFA to be compatible.

        What is T-OTP? I’ve only ever seen OTP.

          Time-based One time password, same thing, just to differentiate it from any scheme some company might try to reinvent the wheel with.
