Vaultwarden or keepass synced to some cloud storage.
Google tells me those are both password managers. Pardon my ignorance, but I thought authenticator apps were something separate and discrete. How does that work? Is it good to have your password and authenticator stored in the same place?
I use Bitwarden currently.
Bitwarden has an option to use it as an authenticator as well. Yeah its not best to keep them both in the same place especially if its on servers you dont control. It makes more sense forr me personally just to keep them in the same vault without worrying about finding my phone.
VaultWarden is a reimplementation of BitWarden’s server. The clients are compatible.
Anyway, you can add your TOTP codes to a Bitwarden item. Either scan the code or enter the key manually.
It’s up to you if you want to risk storing the TOTP alongside the password, as it means you lose the second factor if your vault is compromised. For a random site? Sure why not. For financial/important stuff? Maybe not.
