> 2FA pushed me out of github

I've seen several folks have this opinion... and it just doesn't make any sense?

SMS for 2FA is problematic for many reasons, but Github offers TOTP & U2F/passkey 2FA, which have zero privacy implications.



2FA is why I can no longer utilize online banking (which is frustrating).
