Some time ago I realised how vulnerable I was keeping all my TOTPs in Authenticator __only__, in the event of losing/breaking my device (and no, there is no way I would sync them to Google cloud). This taught me few things:

- there isn't much to Authenticator and TOTPs in general, it's just a secret, which can be shared across multiple TOTP managers and devices. I had solved the "single point of failure" concern

- that opened a new need for "safe TOTP replication with offline access", and that's how I ended-up running my own vaultwarden instance and using the bitwarden clients across devices.

I'm glad I did, and I can't recommend it more. IIRC, this¹ helped tremendously along the way.

And this is why Aegis has a working encrypted offline backup.

Yubikeys support Google and other TOTPs too
