If you get a smartcard, you can install https://github.com/BryanJacobs/FIDO2Applet https://github.com/BryanJacobs/FIDO2Applet on it to make it into a FIDO2 authenticator. You can install a GPG and a PIV applet too.
A Yubikey is just a proprietary smartcard with a bunch of apps installed and some HID emulation (pretending to be a keyboard, which you likely do not want).
- password4321 4y agoI think the keyboard aspect was wanted back when smart card readers and extra software drivers were needed, but there are USB "smart cards" now and operating system support is solid.

- Borealid 4y agoIf you want to run flexible apps, I think you'd probably want a Javacard like those sold by https://www.smartcardfocus.com/shop/ilp/se~71/java-cards/p/index.shtml https://www.smartcardfocus.com/shop/ilp/se~71/java-cards/p/i... , not a special "PGP Card".
