Passkeys are a great idea, but everyone involved seems like they want the process to be as much of a pain in the dick as possible. So until the industry pulls it's collective head out of its collective ass (not going to hold my breath on that one), it'll be passwords+2FA for me.
I hate 2fa so much, I never thought they would come up with anything more irritating. Little did I know.
I really like 2FA as long as it's TOTP and I can use an offline app or program for it. It just works and is very easy and secure.
Yeah it should be "Password+TOTP"
Jesus Christ, dude, that is exactly it.
We're trying to implement passkeys at work and the testing has been an absolute nightmare. Literally have no control over the onboarding experience because each tech giant is clamoring over each other, interjecting into the process to be the "home" for your passkeys. It's bananas.
When it's all set up, it's kinda great! But getting set up in the first place is an exercise in frustration.
It's a chance for them to lock you (normies) into their platform forever. They're not going to give that up.
Silly.
Are they learning?
Edit: my bet is the experience was so ridiculously frustrating, Chrome/Google actually saw some attrition - maybe enough people made Yahoo! Mail accounts that Google noticed
