Hey there,

I can not log into the Firefox Addons website at https://addons.mozilla.org

- I click on the "Register or log in" link at the upper right corner.

- It opens a page with my email address and a blue button ton log in (picture 1)

- When I click that blue button, it takes me to the second page where I'm asked to enable 2 step authentication (picture 2)

I don't want to enable 2FA for Firefox Addons website and I don't want to download a third party app for this, I just want to be able to log in to the website.

If I click the "cancel" link (at the bottom), it brings me back from where I was and still not logged in

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

2FA is required for this website since some time.

Note that there are extensions for Firefox that can generate the TOTP code. There are also password managers that support this.

I know two-factor authentication is required for extension developers, but I wasn't aware it was required for other users. Hmm, I wonder why?

Thanks @cor-el, I tried Auth Plus and was able to log in without having to install anything.

@jscher2000 Actually I wanted to log in to publish a new version of an addon I developped.
