It is a bad idea to have your password manager and 2FA be the same app though. You want to spread it around so one attack can't break your logins.
You aren't wrong and I should rethink that. But BW is so damn handy.
While that is true, the risk of someone brute forcing into an account of mine on the login side than on mine. That's what I use 2FA against. If they managed to break into my vault, they'd have broken into my Mailserver and whatnot, so....
Good point.
Is it realistic (i.e. is it secure enough) to self-host 2 Bitwarden, one for passwords, one for authentication?
Or would splitting that between 2 Bitwarden logins work?
I just throwing stuff at the wall, I haven't thought either of these through yet.
