Authy is basically unsupported. Not surprised. I switched my accounts to 1Password when they announced the end of life of the macOS app.

I chose Authy back in the day because that's what everyone was suggesting. I hate it. I hate the whole cyber"security" community.

Why do you hate the whole community?
Because it's them who have pushed so hard for this 2fa mess.
That makes sense. In case it helps others... when they announced end of life of the mac app, that was because Apple Silicon macs can run the iOS version of Authy. So, if you have an M series mac then you can still use and get updates to authy.
Authy is terrible. I recently tried to delete my account, because I've (finally) moved everything to Keepass, and they make it as difficult as possible. Then they make you wait 30 days before they actually delete it, making sure to email you constantly in the mean time, to ask you to please reconsider. My 30 days expired a few days ago, so if they had actually deleted my account when I told them to, my info maybe wouldn't have been leaked.
Dog shit company. Avoid.
After I transferred everything I only had dead sites no longer around like FTX in the app. I feel like it needs to be left around as a kind of Time Machine…
