Hi, I want to add 2FA to my account but activating it won't trigger my keepass app, I can see the setup code on URL which I can use it with keepass to generate tokens but website expects me to follow link so please add a manual activation for 2FA

I use keepassXC on linux.

Copy the secret key from the url.
otpauth://totp/Lemmy.world:username?secret=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&algorithm=SHA256&issuer=Lemmy.world

Paste that here:

I tried all this, I did get keepass to provide the 2FA code, but lemmy won't accept it. I had to reset my password so I can get back in.
