Never heard of Quixo, thanks for sharing. My domain name was picked randomly a decade ago among the remaining short-ish names -- being similar in name is a coincidence.

Not much if you use a password manager that checks the domain before auto filling and/or use U2F tokens as your 2nd factor. The threat model isn’t too different from other things that can happen if a malicious user is on the same netwo

Semi related: apps which display TOTP tokens should start their timer when the user opens the app (so the code doesn't change 5s after opening the app). The server in the backend is checking the previous+next N tokens anyways since the
