Is this some sort of a convenience feature hidden behind a paywall to justify purchasing their subscriptions or does generating the codes actually cost money? If the latter is the case, how do applications like Aegis do it free of cost?

Naaah, in “Multiple factor Authentication”, the word “factor” is just to look cool… The original MfA meant “Multiple fields Authentication”. (I’ll see myself out)
i dont think i know what youre talking about?.. but factor refers to one of three types: something you know (passwords), have (totp or yubikey), or are (biometrics). having 2 passwords is almost the same as having one password, since they are the same factor. thats why having totp linked to your password manager is basically like having 2 passwords. it almost defeats the point
I made a joke, basically saying that if you use a single device, it’s “Multiple fields authentication” as opposed to “multiple factors authentication”.
ohh yeah i get it good one
