Can someone shed some light on an inconsistency with the otpauth/totp protocol relative to Rift

Hey klepp0906:

Great question. We've discussed adding support for non-standard OTP implementations, but as it currently stands it's something we're unlikely to do. Because Valve is expecting that the authenticator app is the one they've released, if they were to make a change in the future that renders our algorithm inaccurate, you could potentially be locked out of your Steam account. I have a Steam account with many games too, and I'd love to keep all my one-time passwords in a single app, but if Valve or Glyph wants you to use their specific app for two factor authentication, we think we should respect that decision.

Advocating for services to implement standards based one-time passwords is the best we can do for the moment.
