As I updated the version to 1.4.0 , adding the 'import' feature I am sharing this here.

I made this extension because I couldn't find one that wouldn't ask for too much permissions (such as accessing all websites data).

Eventually I found it nice to have a TOTP that can really be audited, the code is 649 lines of JS, 214 CSS and 52 HTML. Feel free to fork, copy part of it, contribute or just request fix/features.

I have used it for more than a year every day and it works nicely.

Does it, tho? It's like "smth you know + smth you have" (although knowing or being able to remember most paswords is also quite often a bad idea, but I digress); so you have a device and know [the password for the password manager which knows] the password.

Besides, given that logic, to not defeat the purpose of 2fa you'll have to have another smartphone just to run aegis or something

    There is an irony in password managers that stores your password but need a password (passphrase would be better). A password for your passwords. Fundamentally this is because the only secured space, only you can get in and no one else, is your own brain.

    Most password leaks are usually caused by bad implementations on the server side. I have an authentication protocol to avoid many password leakages I'd like to share one day (double salt, one from client, one on server so password is never shared to the server).
