Not super related but it's funny that Twitter basically shed text 2FA unless you pay for it with their monthly blue checkmark thing, demoting anybody who had text 2FA to authenticator style app to save on cost, whereas Microsoft/GitHub are forcing everybody to enroll, which would inverse what Twitter did and send their 2FA SMS costs through the roof.

Authenticator-based 2FA is far more secure than SMS-based 2FA
