Why do password managers charge for TOTP code generation? - eviltoast

Is this some sort of a convenience feature hidden behind a paywall to justify purchasing their subscriptions or does generating the codes actually cost money? If the latter is the case, how do applications like Aegis do it free of cost?

    Because the business model works that way.

    Draw them in with features and lock the actual security features behind an additional pay wall.

    Enterprise environments is rife with this kind of crap. Sso.tax lists some of the worse ones.
