      Unfortunately, most people that have this fall into two, maybe 3 camps

      1. work installed it and i use it because they said to
      2. work uses proprietary MS mfa so i have to
      3. Actually likes Microsoft?

      source, I’m in camp 2

        1. Installed it because it’s the recommended one when signing up for a Microsoft account even though they let you use other authenticators

          Yeah i think thats probably a variation of 1 but fair enough.

          For normal TOTP thats the equivalent of “we recommend Edge” which sounds silly to anyone that understands browsers but not everyday knowledge.
