I use a key-pair for github ssh. I don't use any password managers, instead I have unique long passwords. What's my second factor without a cellphone?

- TimWolla 4y agoYou can use OATHTOOL [1] on the command line or even roll your own TOTP implementation [2] in just a few lines of code in your favorite programming language.

- potatoz2 4y agoI don’t believe this 2FA announcement applies to SSH access. The public key you use is already 2FA enabled, in a sense (the key is what you have, the password to unlock it what you know). This applies to logging in to the GitHub Web application.
