The galaxy-brain move is to store the password in a password manager, and also have the same password manager store the TOTP. Finally, you set your password manager to unlock by biometric authentication
All of a sudden, you're set by just showing your fingerprint to the reader.
Only downside is that you can more likely be compelled to give up biometric authentication than a password (as far as I understand)
Very true. But most of the places that will compel you also have no issue just compelling the companies you have accounts to give you up.
This is a threat I'm not planning to handle.

Physical security keys to the rescue!
Break it when you're in danger.
Or just invest in some real, physical security using all the crypto you've got to prevent something like this happening in the first place, that way you've got both physical and digital security to protect u rather than js one like some jokeman.
What kind of physical security will protect me when the government breaches into my house?
Also, I see you using your alt accounts to upvote yourself.
None. Prolly why you need offsite backups. Find a better govt ig
Just don’t travel to the USA. Or 100 miles into the interior of the United States from any land or maritime border.
I'm not planning to. Not without a burner setup, at least.
I have a very secure password protecting my password manager, and have set up all my passwords there to 123456
