omg! ubuntuProton launches a free, open-source 2FA app with cross-platform sync – and you can install on Ubuntu (no more scrabbling for your phone to get a code).

Desikner@omgubuntu I don't scramble for my phone to get a 2FA code because I use Authenticator.
@desikn Yup, I mention Authenticator in the article (having written about it before), but as I also note in the article, Proton's pitch is that it runs on mobile and desktop and syncs between them, so your codes are available on both.

Keeping the second factor 2FA on a different device would enhance the security.

✍️ #MorpurgoMedia.nl@omgubuntu only when you have a paid account. Without you cant use the mail app and without it will not sinc. I found out. It works on Android, not on a laptop because you can't login.

There's also the Authenticator RS application, which also works very well under Linux (tested, in Arch repo).
