Facebook recently supported it too.

Here's the problem. These are the 2nd factor solutions off the top of my head.

  1.  Yubikey
  2.  Duo
  3.  TOTP/Google Auth
  4.  SMS
  5.  Fido U2F
  6.  JavaCard
  7.  RSA SecurID
  8.  Perfect Paper Passwords.
Sure U2F is technically better, but many of those are 'good enough' and make people lots of money.
