I think using a password manager is already 2FA.
Something you have: a password database on your PC.
Something you know: your master password.
TOTP is a nice addon, but you can store it in the same password manager. It will still help with some attacks (e. g. if a hacker manages to MITM your traffic, they only get the password + one code, which is not sufficient to log in again).
