Is switching to Aegis really worth the hassle?
Is switching to Aegis really worth the hassle?
Hello! I'm in the process of slowly de-googling my life and taking my privacy more seriously.
I currently use Google Authenticator for 2fa at the moment.
I am currently dreading swapping those to Aegis, which requires a password every time I want to use it (that's very inconvenient, to be honest) while with Google's I can just open the app and get the necessary code right away; no password required.
Should I just stop being lazy, suck it up, and make the switch? I know I'm being a bit of a baby.
Edit: Okay, apparently I can use my fingerprint scanner instead, which is a LOT better, so I'll stop being a lazy shit and do the swap tomorrow. Cheers!
Final Edit: I made the switch to Aegis. Already made a backup, and I have Biometrics setup. Ty everyone!

I use a self-hosted bitwarden, it keeps both my passwords and generates TOTP authentication codes
This is the only way, saving tons of credentials centralised isn't the way to go, if you're able to do it yourself and mantain it.
Not everybody should selfhost
instructions unclear, everyone should be @selfhosted
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !selfhosted@lemmy.world
I'v been trying to self host bitwarden but I keep running into error after error. Mostly with nginx 😑
I use bitwarden_rs with docker-compose, behind nginx. I can share my config if anyone is interested.
I self host on my Synology and getting the reverse proxy with the webhook setup properly was such a PITA it took me giving up for a couple months and coming back to it to finally get set up. Turns out I was looking in the wrong place for security certs the whole time 🤦
Seems badtio keep both forms of auth in the same place.
