I didn't know that, but security-wise, wouldn't it still be better to use Aegis? 2FA is meant to provide extra security in case your password is compromised; this means that if someone gets into your password manager, they still wouldn't be able to access your accounts because of the 2FA. But if you put your 2FA inside the password manager, that just makes it easier to access your accounts, right? Anyway, I found that information interesting, I had no idea. Thanks!

    You're right, but if they have your password manager, they likely have your phone, and that means they have your Aegis too. Still, my suggestion is less of a second factor unless you have 2fa on your keypass, so not best practice.
