The walls are going to come down. KeyPassX supports passkeys and allows you to export them as you wish. 1Password and Apple Passwords have both said they're going to support exporting and importing of passkeys. Yes, it's awful during the transition period while the tech matures, but there is a path towards a great future.

> KeyPassX supports passkeys and allows you to export them as you wish. The last time I tried to use passkeys, the desktop was easy. What about mobile? There wasn't a local third-party password manager that could work with passkeys on Android.

    The only thing I found is that I'm entirely disinterested in passkeys for the next 5 years.

  Unfortunately KeyPass is pretty fragmented on mobile devices, but there is https://strongboxsafe.com https://strongboxsafe.com and https://keepassium.com https://keepassium.com for IOS with passkey support, but I don't know what options there are for Android, but I suspect there are somewhere.

  Looks like bitwarden supported this since May 2024, and vaultwarden as well. Can be self-hosted, but you're looking for something that doesn't sync at all / local-only? https://bitwarden.com/blog/bitwarden-passkeys-mobile/ https://bitwarden.com/blog/bitwarden-passkeys-mobile/ https://vaultwarden.discourse.group/t/passkeys-in-bitwarden-vaultwarden/4395 https://vaultwarden.discourse.group/t/passkeys-in-bitwarden-...

  KeePassDX on Android has initial passkey support in a feature branch, not yet ready for general use: https://github.com/Kunzisoft/KeePassDX/issues/1421 https://github.com/Kunzisoft/KeePassDX/issues/1421

…and do you think we can trust Big Tech on their promises, based on their reputation / recent news events?

KeePassX is long dead, and it's not with "key" but with "kee" -> KeePassXC. Thank you :)

The "tech" of passkeys is trivial in context of authentication. You could argue that it is a UX issue. But I think you cut large companies, that have the ability to develop sensible UX a thousand times over, too much slack for a shitty product.
