2-factor would be fine if it didn’t have to involve my phone. It’s such a pain in the ass. Like a second password would be fine, so my password manager could just do both at once.

I don't think you get why 2fa is more secure. That would be basically the same as having one password.

I guess I don’t

I just want them to make it so I can use my password manager, because juggling multiple authentication apps and sms messages etc just makes me less likely to turn on 2fa in the first place.

Some password managers (Bitwarden) can generate TOTP tokens

You only need one authentication app, not multiple

Until two separate accounts with authenticator/manager support don't have any crossover.

No my bank and my work use different ones

Ah, normally they are cross-compatible, workplaces that use a cloud suite sometimes do require a certain service for everything.
