I really want to convert my pixel but I'm so damn lazy.
Mostly worried about losing TOTP apps and configurations. I really should be backing those up.
Aegis works perfectly. My university used Duo and then Okta, and both worked. I was unable to get Authy to work, though.
It is beyond easy, connect and press the button.
Just take note of your settings and apps to duplicate.
You can export them from the Google authenticator app and import into something like keepassdx. Its a bit of a workaround doing such, having to read the data from the QR code but entirely possible.

Mine sync between devices using Syncthing, merging forked credentials is easy enough to fix too with the desktop app.
Authy doesn't work, but Authy is not that great privacy-wise. I use a self-host app anyway that's backed up.

Why would I use this over Aegis? Genuine question. Aegis has been working flawlessly for years.
Not sure you would, both are FOSS and if it works I wouldn't change. Looks like similar feature sets at the core, so unless you want something specific I'd leave it.
Just good to have options.
You can export and import Totp codes pretty easily with most apps I've tried. Except Microsoft's.
You should really not be backing them up. You should be saving and securing your recovery codes.
