I entered an old email addy, got the code stuff and have not had to log in again.
All in all it took less than 2 min and zero problems.
I dont know how the QR thingy works, but with mail you have option remember on this device (or similar) for 30 days. Make sure that is checked.

Assuming it's the same as the setup enabled for mod accounts a while back, you'll have to log in again each time if you're switching devices, browsers or virtual machines, as well as if your security or browser settings prevent the "stay logged in" credentials being saved.
If you scan a QR code into an authentication app such as the Microsoft Authenticator, then it's just generating a 60 second rolling code logged to the timezone of the device you're authenticator app is installed on. Generally better than email authentication from a reliability and security point of view, although I guess that also depends on the nature and use of the devices/virtual machines/emulators you have available. Don't generally recommend web based (browser extension) authentication either.
