Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Video conferencing platforms beyond Zoom? What works for you?

[Randall Smith (xenosrandall]

Hi Leah,

For your Zoom two-factor challenge:

I've seen others create recovery codes and put those in a shared Google
doc. You can generate 12 codes at a time. The person who uses the last code
generates a new set of 12 and adds them to the doc.
