I've started migrating all of my 2FA over to 2FAS. No desktop app per se, but it does have extensions for all major browsers, and apps for iOS and Android. You control the syncing of the 2FA (either automatically via Google Drive or via manual bulk exports to a local file), no SaaS bullshit.

Thanks for the recommendation. Started working on migrating all of my 2FA over from Authy. The process sucks (that's not the fault of 2FAS), but I really like 2FAS as an app so far.
File size can also be prohibitive. I recorded my kiddo opening Christmas presents at 4k60, and the file is too large for Google Photos to back up.
Yeah, but with a skin on it doesn't really matter. Even without the skin, it wasn't that bad. But the skin definitely improves the grip.
I don't use cases.
When I worked a more active job, I used them religiously. I thoroughly tested OtterBox's warranty.
Now that I work a desk job, I'm much less worried about breaking my phones. I put a skin on them for the aesthetics and improved grip. Over 4 years case-free on 4 phones, zero issues.
Mind sharing which bots to block? Some bots are useful, so I'd rather not hide all bots.
I grew up in the Christian church. I even went to Bible college and graduated.
There's plenty of internal inconsistencies in the Bible that people point to. Honestly, while I was always intrigued by those, I didn't (and still don't) think those are deal breakers. What did it for me was twofold.
First, the people and their inconsistencies in belief/behavior. There's plenty of beliefs, practices, and policies that you can argue, but being kind and compassionate are pretty clear callings without room for debate. The most hateful, spiteful, discriminatory people I know can all be found in a church on Sunday, or at least claiming to be Christian. Not to say that all Christians are like this - some of the kindest people I know are Christians. But as a group, they are appalling.
Second is results. I've prayed for plenty of stupid stuff I'm sure. If a god is real, I don't hold it against them for ignoring my dumb asks. But when I look at the serious stuff - prayers for lost people to come home, for severe illness to be healed, for provision for the impoverished, I can't see any difference at a macro level between praying and not praying.
I questioned what good religion was if it didn't seem to improve people or the world, and came to the conclusion that it was a wash, so I quietly walked away nearly a decade ago.
It honestly kinda sucks. It was a huge portion of my life. Most of my friends are people I met through church and college. My family is still heavily religious. I met my spouse through church, and they are not in the same position as me. Barring 2 friends, I have never told anyone I know that I've even questioned. Even as I've moved through jobs, there's always been someone who already knew me, so the expectations that come with a religious history and degree have always preceded me. I'm effectively in the closet. Anyone who says leaving is the easy route is ignorant and wrong. It's hard.
I've been big on MUTEMATH since highschool. Unfortunately, I think they've broken up, but I still love their music.
Where I work now is really weird as far as time off goes. I don't get a limited number of vacation days. But I do have a limited number of paid sick days.
