Exporting your 2FA tokens from Authy to transfer them into another 2FA application

IMPORTANT - Update regarding deprecation of Authy desktop apps

Past August 2024, Authy stopped supported the desktop version of their apps:
See Authy is shutting down its desktop app | The 2FA app Authy will only be available on Android and iOS starting in August for details.

And indeed, after a while, Authy changed something in their backend which now prevents the old desktop app from logging in. If you are already logged in, then you are in luck, and you can follow the instructions below to export to tokens.

If you are not logged in anymore, but can find a backup of the necessary files, then restore those files, and re-install Authy 2.2.3 following the instructions below, and it should work as expected.

	# Set variables in .bashrc file

	# don't forget to change your path correctly!

	export GOPATH=$HOME/golang
	export GOROOT=/usr/local/opt/go/libexec
	export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
	export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

	Debugger commands:

	apropos -- List debugger commands related to a word or subject.
	breakpoint -- Commands for operating on breakpoints (see 'help b' for
	shorthand.)
	bugreport -- Commands for creating domain-specific bug reports.
	command -- Commands for managing custom LLDB commands.
	disassemble -- Disassemble specified instructions in the current
	target. Defaults to the current function for the
	current thread and stack frame.

	#!/bin/bash

	# on macOS, enable indirect opengl vi xquartz
	defaults write org.macosforge.xquartz.X11 enable_iglx -bool true

	# ssh to linux server with x forwarding, and start an opengl app
	ssh -X user@linux_server
	glxgears

	# note that using indirect rendering (which is the case when going over ssh), xquartz only supports up to opengl 1.4

	# Script to generate a new block every minute
	# Put this script at the root of your unpacked folder
	#!/bin/bash

	echo "Generating a block every minute. Press [CTRL+C] to stop.."
