Proton Pass and Ente Auth are both convenient and secure imo.
Ente looks really nice but I wish it had a Firefox addon
They do have desktop apps at least. I'm happy with it so far, totally second the recommendation.
Regarding your general question: I would argue that a separate 2FA app is a must, since you can not only secure your password manager with it, but also remain protected if it is breached somehow.
Having 2FA and credentials in one place partly breaks the rational between having 2FA at all.
i just realized i set up ente but put the login for it in my bitwarden. that kind of defeats the purpose. so i guess i would need to save the ente creds outside of bitwarden... then i need a second 2FA source for that... endless cycle...
Well yes and no. You would still need access to your email as well for the login approval on ente auth.
I don't bother with 2FA for Ente. It's supposed to add a layer of security, no need to add yet another layer just for the sake of it.
I think auth is a pretty recent addition to ente's lineup.
I self host photos and their customer service has still been pretty responsive, so it may be worth reaching out and asking if a browser extension is on the roadmap.
