There is a counter-argument that passkeys are more complex for folks who are already pretty good with security, without really adding any value. It removes some control from people who know what they're doing. Google's track record on abandoning things doesn't help me feel more confident.
- izacus 3y agoI don't understand that argument - passkeys behave exactly like password manager managed random passwords. Exactly the same - even same apps use them. Surely that's the standard for security for "people who know what they're doing"?!

- croes 3y agoHave you tried switching your password manager for passkeys? Maybe because you had an iPhone and your new Phone is an Android, or you don't like the prices of 1password etc. At the moment you are stuck.
