That’s a poor mental model for how it works. If it was just a private key that I had, then import/export would be trivial.

- clysm 1y agoIt is that trivial. The problem is vendor lock-in and no common, defined way to export/import them securely (which is going to change soon).
- lucumo 1y agoKeepassXC seems to have included that for two years now: https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/pull/8825 https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/pull/8825 (I don't use Keepass, so I can't attest to how well it works.) There's a JSON example of an export on the page. It shows nicely what's stored on your machine. It's a non-standardized format, because a standard is still being worked on. I think most vendors are just waiting for that. The FIDO Alliance has a news message about it: https://fidoalliance.org/fido-alliance-publishes-new-specifications-to-promote-user-choice-and-enhanced-ux-for-passkeys/ https://fidoalliance.org/fido-alliance-publishes-new-specifi... In the article they mention they are not just going to support exporting passkeys, but also passwords and other credentials. The goal is to create a secure exchange format for that. They have published drafts of the standards.
