Are there other good TFA apps aside from Google which could work?
Yes! You can use Authy which is made by Sendgrid, and Microsoft Authenticator among others, I use Authy myself as it has a nice interface

Thread bump as a friendly reminder to enable TFA for your OF account.... plus a question.
There was a mention of having an icon or somesuch indicating a member has TFA enabled, is that still planned?

Just bumping this to remind people to enable TFA to protect their accounts, especially more established members

It looks like someone’s account was recently hacked, so here is a bump to remind people to set this up. It’s easy, protects your account, and protects others from potential scams.

It’s under Settings > Security & Login

Late to give a big thank you to the admins for adding this extra security. The best thing I've done in the past few years is move to a commercial grade password manager, TFA and passkeys. Now, if I could just avoid those damn credit card skimmers!!

All good moves, and with this recent upgrade we do now support passkeys on the security page https://omegaforums.net/account/security
