Basically every other service (and therefore most authenticator apps) use SHA1.
So although you provide the right secret, you get a different code because it's derived from a different hashing mechanism
Ooooh ok cool. Sadly I'm using MS Authenticator so I can't specify the type. I really don't want to migrate to another one so hopefully this gets fixed I know there is a ticket open on github.
My next question is this: I subscribed to the Technology community the other day. I went into my settings and did something that now won't let me see any posts in that community and can't fix it.
Lemmy uses a SHA256 digest for its TOTP codes.
