### Short description

A 2FA client that is local-only for Linux distributions

### Why I think this tool should be added

- Linux first 2FA client
- Native code not bulkier Electron
- Supports Aegis Backup/Database file(Including encrypted)
- Useful for those with Aegis in Android, can be coupled with Syncthing, eliminating cloud services such as Proton, Ente & Bitwarden.
- Multiple Databases like KeePassXC, simultaneously.
- Timely backups with reminders
