Re: Fedora Account Migration & Production Deployment Update: COMPLETE!
The new accounts site is awesome. But, the 2FA system does seem to be
a bit annoying.
* It can't be disabled, so you can't try it out and later change your mind.
* Unlike many other implementations, there is no backup code option
(GitHub, Google, others, provide 10 one-time use backup codes you can
use in case you don't have access to your authenticator app; these can
be regenerated after a successful login).
* There is no confirmation that you have configured your authenticator
correctly, because it does not prompt you for a OTP after setting it
up... the first time you know whether or not it works is when you try
to log in and are locked out of your account or not.
* In many places, including accounts.fedoraproject.org, in order to
log in, you have to append the OTP to your password, so it doesn't
really play nice with password managers.
