This is a question regarding security best practices:
When logging frequently onto exchanges that require 2FA for access, do you guys think it would be safe to use your go to 2FA app on desktop version rather than just using it always on a separate device e.g. mobile phone?
It seem like a bit of a convenience/security trade off to me. But I would like to have your opinion on the magnitude of possible security loss... Thank you!
2FA is just a security addition to those users that preferred a much secured accounts especially in their crypto-space. No matter on what device you would use 2FA apps, you would still be vulnerable if you kept visiting untrusted websites or downloading from anonymous torrent links. But with regards to security,
it would depend on what device and operatign system you are using, some OS such as Android (Mobile) and Microsoft (PC) are less secured hence no matter on what device you've installed your two-factor authenticator, you would still be vulnerable.
