You might find NordPass better for your manager. Don't know about authentication.

Sorry, what did they say was the reason for this? A huge part of me moving to Proton in the first place was that Gmail did almost exactly the same tthing to me around 3 years ago, in the middle of the night, locking me out of the primary email I'd used for 18 years and where I foolishly kept most of the important documents I'd acquired in my adult life. When they let me back in, they went to exttraordinary lengths to try to prevent me from extracting my own data and also got my music website blacklisted somehow saying I was an "information thief".To this day, I have absolutely no idea what that was about, and it took me 3 months to clear up and caused a mental breakdown. I guess I'm foolish for spending the afternoon moving all my 2FA other to their authenticator if it's vulnerable, then. I guess I'll have to find a backup. :( I'm told I have a very strong case to sue them under multiple provisions of GDPR but it was all too much hassle in the end and I learned not to rely on any one service.

Indeed, I had a massive public argument with some people a few years back, and closed down my Facebook page out of anger. An hour or two later, I was hit by notifications that someone had burned through all 10 attempts at getting my recovery codes, before launching a wider attack on my music website, so I would have to say that can far too easily be abused, from personal experence.

That sounds like an excellent idea since I've had to use it twice today myself for various reasons (mainly tinkering with stuff in the bowels of sleep deprivation).

I use Nord for my VPN and Password Manager (very good by the way) and I have to log in using completely different 18 character passwords for each of them, though I have it configured to let me back in biometrically after the first one on the Mac.

I've been primarily concerned with the fact that the email aliases are all potential logins/attack vectors (and that there are multiple threads which have been talking about it for seven years}; I'd heard some people suggest that might affect the rest of the ecosystem as well, but hadn't experimentally tried it myself until about an hour ago, when I was setting up drive, authenticator, and all the rest of it on all three of my systems. So if any one of those get breached, they can potentially have a go at all of it. 2FA and Yubikeys etc notwithstanding, but it's the principle.

I've literally just set up my Yubikeys as backup for my Proton stuff and it went fine. That's just mail, drive, and authenticator, though.

Agreed. I've had to use mine twice today alone because of glitches with various combinations of the other software I need to log in.
