I find that the PIV smart card stack is needlessly complicated if all you're trying to do is add a resident SSH key to your yubikey. Look at `ed25519-sk` [0], which is supported by default by recent versions of OpenSSH (and dropbear? idk)

- doubled112 4y agoPGP is definitely complicated if you’re not going to use it for other functionality. And that’s completely separate to the PIV functionality on the key.
