GitHub is rolling out mandatory 2FA for accounts that contribute code, with a 45-day window to enroll.

Aegis, Raivo, or Ente are the ones that have most promise from what I've read. Any other recommendations? or thoughts on those three in particular.

So now I need my damn phone to push something. Great. What's next, my national ID?

That's been pending for a while, I'll just stop contributing code.
