FOSS-alt to Authy? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I currently use Authy on my android and my Linux system.

It syncs every new authenticator between my devices but I dont want to trust companies with my security anymore.

I host a nextcloud instance on my homelab. Does anyone know a good FOSS authenticator that can use my nextcloud to sync between Linux and android? Provided that it is available on both of course.

Thanks for any input!

The bitwarden clients themselves do keep a cached version of the database every time there is a successful sync to the server, so if you were to take the server offline you could still view / export the data thankfully! You cannot make changes to the database according to that page and my own experience, though others have reported that they are able to. Additionally, it looks like this cache does expire (30 days on desktop, 90 on mobile).

Just make sure to not log out completely (this is not the same as locking the vault, which is fine), this wipes the cache immediately.
