So, Authy is discontinuing the desktop app on March 19th. This sucks so much.
They want us to pick up our phones, find the Authy app, open it, validate our identity, look up the site, view the code, then manually enter the code on the website and hope not to make a mistake within the time window. All this instead of three clicks with my mouse. No thanks.
Will entertain suggestions for alternatives to Authy for my mac. TIA
