Hello. As the title says, do you know some Authenticator alternatives? I’ve found out Aegis and Bitwarden authenticators so far, even if they’re not European alternatives, they’re still FOSS though.

I’d like to know what your opinion?

    I use Ente Auth, open source 2FA authenticator, with E2EE backup (which makes it nicely multi -device useable)

    I don’t get it with these. If it’s FOSS why would the country of origin matter? All source is available and anyone can freely fork it? You don’t even pay anything in the first place so not like boycotting these types of projects has any effect?

      The thing is… would you trust a software that is developed in russia (without a full code audit)? I think at the moment its the same with anything coming from the US.

        If you can’t audit the code then it’s closed source and not FOSS.
