Reminder for Bitwarden users: Starting in February, users without two-step login (2FA) enabled will need to enter a verification code sent to their email when logging in from an unrecognized device (bitwarden.com)

Bitwarden users who store their email account credentials within their Bitwarden vaults would have trouble accessing the sent codes if they are unable to log in to their email.

To prevent getting locked out of your vault, be sure you can access the email associated with your Bitwarden account so you can access the emailed codes, or turn on any form of two-step login to not be subject to this process altogether.

On my home PC. Same with the 2fa export of aegis.

~~"What if you can't access blah"~~

~~There's a limit to interoperability, if you want access to everything everywhere even when you lose access for whatever reason, you will have to concede security.~~

~~You could save a keepass file with secure notes of both the bitwarden 2fa and recovery codes and save it in drive or whatever, you don't need passwords nowadays to access the Google account.~~

~~"But what if I lose access to my phone?"~~

~~Well you are fucked, what else do you want? I guess you could print the recovery keys and store them in a secured box at home.~~

Edit: I read further down that your comment was meant to incite other to actually think and do stuff. Sorry if I came of rude.
