- skybrian 2y agoWhat are you talking about? Redundancy is how you avoid getting locked out. Each passkey serves as a backup for the other one. More generally, you should have two keys for any lock, so you can still get in if you lose one of them.
- michaelt 2y agoSetting up both Apple and Google passkeys solves: * Lost access to your Google account, but still have access to your Apple account (or vice-versa) * Apple device doesn't support Google passkeys, or vice-versa But it multiplies the following downsides: * Apple/Google account gets hacked, hacker gets all your 2FA credentials * Snooping on your activity. Particularly Google, but Apple also have an advertising business. * Setting up accounts on new sites is twice the hassle. * Too complicated for the kind of folks who need the phishing protection passkeys provide.
