Proton pass

Guys I use proton mail and proton pass but the issue I have is that how can I have a secure password for proton mail with 2fa if I use proton pass? If I have a less difficult password then I am lowering my security and If I want to have a 2fa (with local encrypted file) then I have to save it on some secure cloud, which for me is proton drive or mega then again I have those passwords saved in proton pass so I would have to login to proton pass first, If I lower password of those apps then again it risks security. ( I am sorry I am so confused). Please help!

Proton warns to not use 2fa from Proton Pass for your Proton account.

Yeah, from what I've read the best approach is a different service for 2fa and/or something involving backups and a physical safe.

Yes. I seem to recall that it will change later on, but i don't know when
