2FA can be all it's cracked up to be. A Yubikey you have to physically possess, and physically touch, to login to a site is completely immune to this. Yes, you need to buy hardware, yes you need 1 or more backup yubikeys in a bank safe somewhere in case your primary one breaks, but it is actually safe. Strong passwords in your head are bad because they're even more phish-able. Like, with FIDO2, my yubikey will not login to "fake-coinbase.com", the attacker cannot proxy the data they get from the yubikey. For 2FA TOTP codes and for passwords, a phishing page can just proxy through the stuff to the real coinbase and login (as happened in this attack). |

Sure, have a second one at home that can be Fedexed to you.
