I cheated the MFAs by switching what I could to SMS, Yubikey or just copying the MFA private keynto Bitwarden. Kind of defeats the point of MFA, but makes stuff definitely easier.
Anything that’s important however is on yubikey, however.
Also, good luck! Are you going through the Digital Minimalism book? I should refresh on it, every time I try it, it doesn’t last long, but I always get rid of one more stupid online habit that I don’t pick up when I inevitably return to my pre-reading the book intetnet usage. So, after already going through like 4 attempts in the last 3 or 4 years, my internet usage is slowly but surly changing for the better. But it’s more of a long run, rather than being able to get everything on the first try, in my experience at least.
If you’re not doing it because of the book/haven’t heard of it, I definitely recommend reading Digital Minimalism by Carl Newport.

Haven’t but will definitely check it out. Thanks for the recommend!
Mostly just tired of smartphones, apps, “always connected” and that whole shebang, and just generally trying to “lo-fi” my life a little bit. I’ve been a tech enthusiast all my life, but here lately, it just all feels too much and too invasive. Trying to cut back and reclaim a little “me” time.
