Big Tech has implemented passkeys in a way that locks users into their platforms rather than providing universal security
Passkeys were developed to replace passwords for better account security, but their rollout by Apple and Google has limited their potential
Proton Pass offers passkeys that are universal, easy to use, and available to everyone for improved online security and privacy.

When vaultwarden supports this I’ll play ball. If I don’t have control over my authentication methods, then they aren’t my authentication methods.

Do you really think it's a good idea to store your password, TOTP and pass key in one place?

[–] hydration9806@lemmy.ml 14 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yes, as long as that place is only accessible by a physical passkey (such as a Yubikey). The risk is miniscule and the convenience is 100% worth it.

I'm actually not sold that I should be putting all my keys in a single password manager like Bitwarden.
