What can we do? Automate all of it in a nice interface that does everything for you. Make it as easy as certbot is now. Something like this, perhaps?

   $ git add-ssh-key github.com
   Checking for ssh key ... not found
   Generating ssh key for you (ssh-keygen -t rsa)... done
   Enter username for github.com: alberteinstein
   Enter account password for [email protected]: **********
   Touch your Yubikey now: <beep>
   Uploading public key ... done
   Welcome to Github!

   $ git clone [email protected]:username/someprivaterepo
