About 2 step varification code

[Azizul7m]

Is there any way I can use it to log in with my verification code?

FB is forcing two-factor authentication on some by 15 Sep: SMS, 'app', or physical key (see below).

Your account requires stronger security from Facebook Protect

Hi <name>,

We're upgrading protection for Facebook accounts like yours and need your help to enable a required security programme by 15 September. It's called Facebook Protect and it uses advanced security measures to help defend your account against potential vulnerabilities.
Turn on Facebook Protect for your account by 15 September. After that, you may not be able to access your account until you've done so.
To enable Facebook Protect:

1. Log in to your account on Facebook.
2. Go into security settings and look for the Facebook Protect option.
3. Follow the steps to enable the programme for your account.
   For security reasons, we have not included direct links to Facebook Protect in this email.

With this, do they still lock out users when using third party clients?

I don't understand what to do here. Where do i find that Facebook Protect option?

Did anybody manage to log in with SMS code? I don't know where to enter that.
The wiki says about "per app passwords" but I can't see such option in my Settings.

I did not find any solution that works. Unfortunately, Facebook does not support dedicated usernames and passwords for applications anymore. Disabling the 2FA, I don't see as a safe option.

I am currently running into this issue myelf and looking into it.

in case anyone else finds this or it is still a concern, you can log in through a browser and turn off 2FA and then connect pidgin, then turn 2FA on again and pidgin stays connected. I do not know if this will be temporary or not but it seems to work as an authorized connection.

Thank you for info! I can't try this now. Can you keep us informed, please?

2FA is implemented in my branch.
