    Why are you hating on passkeys? They are awesome! So much more convenient than passwords.

      I don’t like Passkey because it’s an overly complicated system, and because it places too much power in entities that I do not trust and I do not want to depend on.

      I can’t use Passkey because it lacks support for some of the systems that I use.

      It’s fine that it exists, but sadly, some online services have made it mandatory, thereby locking me out of my accounts.

      Making it mandatory is incredibly stupid.

      I think the main probem for now is bad third party implementation… several password managers work with passkeys, too, but they all have problems with interoperability, sometimes even with backing them up inside the program.
