    I’m all for security, but god I hate forced 2fa. I’m a power user with a password manager that generates 64 characters long random passwords, different for each site. I don’t want to be bothered to take my phone every time I want to login.

      Use a password manager that also does totp.

        If this guy is this lazy then this might be a good option? Bitwarden comes with one included but I still use a separate app (Aegis) and my yubikey.

          If this guy is this lazy

          I try to keep my fingers in my keyboard as much as possible and having to take out my phone is just a waste of time. I do not need 2fa. Let me do my own security.

          Maybe requiring 2fa for passwords shorter than 60 characters would be a good solution. Most people would use 2fa but people with strong passwords can live without it.

            I highly disagree with not having 2fa. Even having one in your password manager, allowing you to not take fingers off of keyboard is better than nothing.
