I've used Bitwarden as my password manager and authenticator for a long time. I've been testing Pass and I really like it overall.

But the thing I realized is that in order to sign in to my Proton account, I need to provide an OTA code. No problem when I'm using a separate password manager/authenticator. But when Pass is my authenticator I don't have access to the OTA code (if I were to log out of all devices).

What are others doing in this situation?

What is OTA in this instance? I use OTP with pass-otp but I suspect you're talking about something else.

One time authentication. Same thing, just different name.

Is pass-otp browser only?

I think we're talking about different programs. I use Pass which has otp support. There are extensions for browser support but I'm only familiar with the cli.

I didn't know what community I was reading your question in. Sorry.
