I heard Amazon allowed passkeys now (I don't use Amazon any more, but I've still got my account for my order history) so I decided to check it out.
In reality, one of these passkeys is the default *Android* provider, and the other is a Yubikey. 0 stars for the passkey interface: the data are wrong, I can't tell them apart, and I have no way to rename them even if I could. Must. Do. Better.
I need to better understand passkeys. And I need to develop guidance that I can explain to my dad.
On that note it was cool to see Costco app prompt to create a #passkey this morning.
Why does Google sometimes show me a QR code to sign in using a #passkey, but other times it lets me sign in with #1Password? Is the 1Password extension the problem?
I will never, ever want to sign in using the terrible QR code passkey workflow. Sadly, when this happens, there seems to be no way to avoid it.
Cyber criminals changed bank details at the Federal Employment Agency

I might have to switch back to BitWarden if for no other reason than to get #PassKey support working across all my different browsers.
Of course KeePassXC support PassKeys but that doesn't help much if your browser can't connect to the locally running KeePassXC database!

@oscherler not shure.
So, #passkey question:
Is it possible that a web site that has been supporting YubiKeys for a while would automatically support Safari’s and 1Password’s passkeys, by means of it being webauthn in both cases, or at least appear to support them, even if it fails later?
That would explain some of the ignorance of customer service agents when you point out how their passkey implementation is broken.

Very happy to finally be able to use my yubikeys on my phone (GrapheneOS, without Play services) 
Most of the pieces were already there, it only missed to be assembled into a Credential Provider, which is finally done with HW Fido2 Provider

If we want a passwordless future, let's get our passkey story straight
Passkeys are based on public key cryptography, where two keys are paired. One key is public and can be shared with anyone, while the other is private and shared with no one.

Ich versuche, alles Relevante in meinem Blog festzuhalten – von der Hardware über #dyndns #Traefik und #Headscale als Mesh-VPN bis hin zur Passkey-Integration.

If you use a #MicrosoftAccount to log in to Windows, it automagically saves a #passkey that will let you into your online account, without needing Two-Step Verification.
The weirdness is: it does not work as a backup Two-Step Verification method when you use Chrome, or even an InPrivate Edge window!
