I use TreeSheets.

  The UI/UX is worthy of exploration; unlike anything I’ve seen.

    kind of similar in some ways to void (void is TUI though). I actually started void to be a tui spreadsheet, but over time found that a strict tree worked better for my own workflows. but maybe over time I’ll revisit the nested spreadsheet idea.

  This looks awesome. I don’t personally see this as a replacement for Joplin which I use and adore for note taking, but I could totally see it as a fabulous tool for ideation and outlining.
  
  Definitely giving this a look, thanks for the pointer!

  How did you manage to get a handle on it? It seems so damned alien and all the tutorials I’ve managed to find when I go looking every 6 months or so are always really shallow, like one of those “button and counter” Medium posts about React.

  Interesting, this reminds me a bit of MaxThink for DOS back in the 90s

  This does look intriguing, but I can’t help but be disinterested in it because it doesn’t look like you can share and collaborate over the Internet. Can you? Or are is there an online equivalent or competitor?

    No, this is strictly desktop software. Miro is the closest I could find to an online version.

Remember: everything breaks, have a backup plan for when this YubiKey does.

Can anyone elaborate on what they do as backup. I sometimes worry about this (use Yubikey for AWS console auth amonst other things).

  Have a backup key that’s already associated with your important accounts, and store it in a safe place. Some services won’t let you assign more than one key to an account, and I think carefully about how important it is that I can get in if my key breaks.

I can recommend https://postmarkapp.com/. Looks like they have a free dev plan: 100 email /mo

catwell edited 3 months ago | link | on: 2fa - a 2-factor authentication terminal app in Python
I just use pass + oathtool.

For instance, in “2fa/github”, I store:
```
oathtool --totp --base32 MY_KEY
```
In my .bashrc I have:
```
eval $(pass 2fa/$1)
```
and then when I need a code I use:
```
2fa github
```
I should write a blog article to explain that. :)

EDIT: I just did.

  How is this different from using the pass-otp extension to pass? I don’t have experience with either, but I use pass to store my regular passwords.

    I just didn’t know pass-otp. It also uses oathtool and zbar, and it is packaged for Arch. I will add it to my post.

  Using pass-otp, it’s just a matter of:
  
  pass otp 2fa/github
  
  And storing the otpauth string in he pass file:
  
  otpauth://totp/GitHub:USERNAME?secret=SECRETSECRET&issuer=GitHub

    worth noting that the pass iOS app can scan QR codes to add the otpauth to your entries, quite neat
