A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

No Google service can last. I've come to the point where I no longer trust any new product they put out.
Yeah, I need to switch to another authenticator app because I'm not sure I even trust that at this point.
Edit: love this community, say I'm looking to switch and I get a plethora of suggestions within the hour lol
You can try Aegis, it's great
andOTP on android is also good
I suggest Authy, BTW. It's an excellent option IMHO, with cross device synchronization. Thats my favorite part, being able to run it on multiple phones at once without any hassle. And desktop.
If you don't like the idea of your (encrypted) TOTP database being synced via a third party, another alternative could be to use KeepassXC's TOTP support and sync the database via a file service you trust (Like a Nextcloud instance)
You don't even need to trust the cloud storage as long as you have a sufficiently strong database password.
You will find some good options here https://www.privacyguides.org/en/multi-factor-authentication/#authenticator-apps
Same here. The only problem with protonmail is that there is almost no option to use standard clients. For mail you have protonmail bridge which is pain in the ass but better than nothing. Calendar and storage is practically useless if you are not able to integrate it to the standard phone app or desktop client.
But I understand that this is the price for encryption.
