Goodday!

Will it be possible to use Aegis for 2FA, any time soon?

See https://getaegis.app/ for more info (I downloaded it from F-Droid).

Cheers, AbangL

Doesn't Aegis work for you ?

Firefox generates a QR code that you scan with the 2FA app and you enter the code it generates in the form to verify that the app works properly. I assume that this is not different then other app. If you currently have enabled 2FA and use it with another authenticator app then disable and re-enable 2FA in the Firefox Account Settings to get a new QR code. Also make sure to save the recovery codes in a safe place.
