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.

I'd say the title would be more precise like "starting February, 2FA will be required for all users" as tth email is also a form of 2FA.

I think it's good, especially when done on the device level, making it that I don't have to use the 2FA part every single time I login, it's a good balance between security and usability
