I use and like Ente Photos a lot but I’ve never understood the appeal of their other products.
Ente Auth and Locker both seem like limited feature subsets of solutions like 1Password.
- Cider9986 4mo agoEnte auth is a really nice secure and private cloud authenticator. It's completely free and there's no lock in, so I suppose it's for getting more people hearing the name. Haven't tried locker but I agree it seemed rather pointless. People say not to use your pw manager for authenticator for security, so that's something for using a separate app. Depends if your using auth for just getting through or actually want the benefits.
- Grombobulous 4mo agoI guess the free-ness of auth and I think locker is included with any photos subscription so maybe that’s the appeal. Maybe it’s bad practice but I don’t mind 2FA being in 1Password because the secret key is the second form of authentication. Nobody can login to my 1Password without the secret key or access to a logged-in device. My credentials can be compromised and it wouldn’t matter. The secret key is not technically “something you have” but it’s close enough for me.
