After everything that has happened with Raivo over the last few days it’s reminded me that I need to go through my accounts with 2FA enabled.
However, how do others keep things organised? My main 2FA app is Proton Pass but I’ll be adding Ente Auth as a backup alongside my Yubikey. In the past I saved a copy of the QR codes when setting up 2FA but I’d occasionally forget to save new ones.
Does anyone have a good system for saving either the QR code or setup code (not actually sure what it’s called) for future use?
EDIT: the code I’m referring to is the initial secret code used to setup the 2FA
Final Edit: I’ve settled on saving the QR codes into a folder that is setup as a git repo.

I use aegis as my 2fa app. I backup the 2fa seeds in my keepass file.
Same, but my seeds are stored in a separate vault from my passwords. Seems like having MFA and passwords in the same place defeats the purpose. I used to let keepassxc auto fill MFA tokens, but finally changed to a separate app.
I print recovery codes of all services and packed them into a bag.
I have the backup codes for the accounts on paper. This is not the same as the initialization qr codes, but it should also work.
