it could be that Google Authenticator doesn't support the SHA256 digests for the TOTP codes that lemmy generates? there's a bit more info here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3309
i've heard that Authy doesn't support it either.

Thanks. I didn't even really pick Google Authenticator. After turning on 2 factor via Jebora it just opened up the app and the code was there.
I guess this means that account is locked untill they fix it or would there be an alternative way in?
do you know if you have an e-mail address setup on the account? if so, you can reset your password which I think also bypasses the 2FA (which isn't great either, but 🤷)
That worked! Thank you for the suggestion. It even let's you use the same password
I've noticed there's a bug in the newest Google Authenticator where it displays an old code despite the ticker refreshing; I now have to close and restart Google Authenticator every. single. time. that I use it.
