I use Aegis for 2FA on multiple accounts. I just really don't like it when I'm forced into it with no way to opt out, whether it's an authenticator or SMS.
It's a good control but you hate the way they implemented that control. I get it. It's legitimate. I have to use Google for work so there is no escape. If I recall correctly (was many years ago), they wanted an SMS number before I could switch over to a proper authenticator.
