> Passkeys is the way to go. Password manager support for passkeys is getting really good. And I assure you, all passkeys being lost when a user loses their phone is far, far better than what’s been happening with passwords. I’d rather granny needs to visit the bank to get access to her account again, than someone phishes her and steals all her money.
I am waiting for the era when using passkeys is not depending from some big tech company.
- jp191919 1y agoI use them without being dependent on big tech.
- MyOutfitIsVague 1y agoWe're in that era. BitWarden supports them natively, and you can even self-host.

- wavemode 1y agoThe maker of the credential manager is still a "big tech company", and there is still lock-in. Before I ever use any passkey solution, I would need to be guaranteed the ability to export and backup my passkeys and migrate them wherever I want. My expectations for how long I intend to be alive and using the internet is much longer than my expectations for the continued operation and service of any particular passkey management software. I already had to jump ship from LastPass after they were hacked. Imagine if they hadn't allowed me to migrate my passwords.
