I am baffled that anyone on HN doesn't have an MFA device in their drawer.

Many European banks do not replace them anymore once they break or run out of battery. Smartphones have become the default for MFA.

Yes that's what I meant. An old smartphone is my device in my drawer.

Ah, thank you for the clarification! Does not really work in all countries, e.g. here it is quite common at events to pay through a QR code and you need your banking app to do so.
