I had been wanting to make something like this for years! This looks really cool. I hope to give it a try on my next project.

Gotcha. It will likely be...a while before I get around to writing a Safari extension, but I am certainly open to it! I honestly don't know the first thing about creating an extension for Safari. I wish they would just get on board and

Thanks for the feedback! Clean data is definitely going to be a challenge for this project moving forward. I've discussed several ideas in other comments in this thread, so check those out if you are interested. It does look like inbox

Gotcha. If you happen to use Firefox, I published the extension to the FF store yesterday too [1]. I will definitely take a look at your PRs. I see that you linked them below. I plan to review all of the outstanding PRs in the twofactorauth

It does look like inbox.google.com is missing from our data set. We have an open issue to make sure that all of the Google products are added [1]. The messaging that is currently shown there is definitely wrong too because inbox.google.com

The extension is now accessible in the Firefox store [1]! Please shout if there are any weird bugs in FF. I do test it in Firefox before publishing, but Chrome is my main browser so I catch things there more quickly. [1] https://

Thanks for the positive feedback! There are 2 main articles in the 2FA series left to write (Push 2FA and U2F/WebAuthN), but there are a ton of other posts I have bouncing around in my head. Join the email list if you're intereste

I am not a core committer for twofactorauth.org (yet! I hope to become one!), so I cannot say whether they will accept a PR like that. However, there is an open issue discussing this topic that is worth reading over [1]. 2FA Notifier has a

That is frustrating. I have been contributing to the twofactorauth.org project, but I am still new to the community there. It is a really great resource of information with over 1,000 sites as of today. I am not aware of any other data sour

> We need some guidelines for proper 2FA implementation. I could not agree more. I write a lot about 2FA on my site, All Things Auth [1], and do teardowns of 2FA implementations for sites. In March, we featured Zapier [2] in a screencast

That is a great idea! I am 100% in favor of helping the users understand the security tradeoffs between the 2FA methods. We definitely have it on the roadmap to update 2FA Notifier to include more educational content. Thanks for the feedbac

I submitted 2FA Notifier to the FF store and got approved, but it still stuck in "Awaiting Review" state. This is my first time working with the FF store, so figuring things out as I go. If you've got any tips/resources&

Thanks for the feedback! We use the data from twofactorauth.org as our main data feed, so that is where we pick up the domains. I am definitely open to augmenting those entries, but trying to think about ways to either automate (ideal) or c

Hey everyone! I created 2FA Notifier with my friend, Ray. We noticed that many people enable 2FA after they realize the services they already use support it! So, we made 2FA Notifier [1], an open source web extension that notifies you when
