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.

Fedora35 hibernation

This guide helps to configure the hibernation on a default Fedora35 (also worked fine in previous Fedora34) installation by using a swap file. The Fedora35 installation comes with btrfs as default filesystem. Also, it comes with a zram swap device:

$ swapon
NAME       TYPE      SIZE USED PRIO
/dev/zram0 partition   8G   0B  100
