    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.
