If proprietary app is better and more robust I am willing to try it and assess it myself.

Aegis authenticator. Beats all proprietary apps I've tried so far

I'm leaving links here in case anyone needs them

It supports importing data from various 2FA apps and even allows you to generate Steamguard codes.

Steamguard? Since when? That's awesome!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I honestly don't know. I set it up with steamguard-cli few months ago and it's working like a charm.

Nothing to worry about when doing that? I'd love to have Valve support 3rd party 2FA apps officially, but oh well

It's been there for quite a few years, I think

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But Steam itself doesn't officially support doing that?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, it doesn't. Or at least they didn't when I started using Aegis for it, I had to import the key from the steam app, because they didn't show any QR codes or such. Not sure if it has changed since then, though.
