Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The request is not related to a problem per-say, but it is one that would enable better mobility of MFA data.

Describe the solution you'd like
The ability to have the export format be changeable, to be both its current (2FAuth formatted json) and something more common, for example, BitWarden/Aegis format (or similar).
Right now, the export function is pointless as you can only import it on other 2FAuth deployments.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Copy and pasting the codes out and/or using the QR code functionality - not really viable en-masse.

Additional context
n/a

Hi.

Right now, the export function is pointless as you can only import it on other 2FAuth deployments.

This is the original intent of the export feature, to make it easier to back up data from the application and to import it later in case of instance migration or data loss. But I agree it may also be used if you want to quit 2FAuth. I will add a more standard export format, like a plain text file with one otpauth URI per line, I know there are 2FA apps that can import such a file. However, I won't work on specific export formats like bitwarden or aegis, it would take too much time and I already have to maintain the import feature. The 2FAuth export format is documented, the other 2FA apps can also work on supporting it.
