#GNOMEAuthenticator

2025-03-04

The Authenticator app (apps.gnome.org/Authenticator) is super convenient to have when signing into various GNOME web services using GNOME's SSO service. Unfortunately, it's not that straightforward to set up additional 2FA apps for GNOME SSO due to subpar UX on Keycloak's side.

Because of that, I've written a section in the GNOME Project Handbook explaining how to do it: handbook.gnome.org/infrastruct.

I am meticulous in storing password and user names in bitwarden and also notes on authenticators and recovery codes for my online stuff. BUT I could not authenticate my login to my #protonmail android app. I set up the #gnomeauthenticator to authenticate my proton mail used via firefox in nixos. But not the #googleauthenticator does not yield valid codes for use on my android phone. Does proton mail only allow ONE authenticator app ?!?!?!? If so this is a calamity.
