2FA is fine.

I use 1password to manage all of this and the only thing compliant is about some sites that seem to break a password manager's ability to auto-populate form fields.
- vollmond 5y agoI find Steam to be the least-onerous (phone-based) 2FA tool I use - it pops up automatically when needed, and the codes are only 5 characters with a mix of letters and numbers, which I somehow find much easier to remember and type. Granted, I don't know if those features involve security sacrifices, and I'm sure I'd get annoyed if I needed a separate app for every tool, but the user experience is more pleasant there for me.
