The only thing stopping me from switching to FireFox is this issue, whenever I try to enable 2-factor-auth I keep getting a message saying "Incorrect two-step authentication code".

I tried restarting my PC, restarting my phone, used 3 different auth apps, restarted my router, used a VPN, cleared cache and cookies, tried enabling it from a different browser, tried using a different phone, tried enabling it on a different account, and nothing fixed the issue, I keep getting the same error message "Incorrect two-step authentication code"

at this point I'm 99% sure it's a server sided issue.

help me, this is taking way too long to just activate 2-factor-authentication :(

There is no server firefox here only account logins. So what you need to do is stop and clear Sync features so you working with the original account and try to update your account info. Also insure your email can be accessed as it might or might not send the verification code there to update your account and if you don't have access to it the account is a Lost account since you can't update or change the settings.
