Bitwarden: Wrong timezone makes TOTP unusable on sites
Solved

I just tried to log into Bitwarden in a new browser and enter the TOTP code generated by Authy.
It was 08:23 here in Germany (UTC +2).
However, Bitwarden throws the following error:Invalid TOTP code! Server time: 2020-09-25 06:23:46 UTC IP: 127.0.0.1
Something similar happens when I try to modify my Amazon account...
My server has the following time zone:
timedatectl Local time: Fr 2020-09-25 08:28:51 CEST Universal time: Fr 2020-09-25 06:28:51 UTC RTC time: Fr 2020-09-25 06:28:51 Time zone: Europe/Berlin (CEST, +0200) System clock synchronized: yes systemd-timesyncd.service active: yes RTC in local TZ: no
So I guess the Bitwarden App has the wrong time zone?

sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata Current default time zone: 'Etc/UTC' Local time is now: Fri Sep 25 09:36:14 UTC 2020. Universal Time is now: Fri Sep 25 09:36:14 UTC 2020.
It now works with the Bitwarden login but not with Amazon - I also contacted Amazon - apparently they have a problem on their side!
