Why wouldn't you just record the authenticator code somewhere?
You can easily generator OTP codes the same as any of the "authenticator" apps using, for example, oathtool [1]
You don't even need the code to be stored on a computer. Just write it down somewhere safe if you're paranoid about getting hacked. The seed codes are usually 16 characters or so.

- woadwarrior01 6y agoYou're right, that's exactly what I've got. I'd forgotten the exact setup I have on Twitter. I just checked and I've got a TOTP app (with backup codes on paper) + Yubikey. I'd disabled SMS for 2FA last year, around the time when Jack Dorsey's Twitter account was compromised with a SIM swap attack.
