Are we talking in circles here? "I avoid passkeys because of Google" "Passkeys implemented by Google have problems"
The way out of the circle that you’ve put yourself in is realizing Google isn’t the only company implementing passkeys.
And that most people are in multiple ecosystems...e.g. Android/iOS + Windows. So they can't use a solution that's not interoperable.
Fortunately there are several interoperable solutions now. There weren’t as recently as last year though.
No. "I avoid passkeys because of Google" is avoiding an entire technology because of a bad implementation. "Passkeys implemented by Google have problems" is only avoiding passkeys implemented by Google, leaving using passkeys still on the table.
