If you're on OpenBSD then you're likely a person that skews more towards security on a security/usability spectrum than the average person. May I ask why you'd prefer passwords or magic links over WebAuthn with something like a Yubikey that's permanently attached to your Thinkpad?

I don't want to use any dongles or anything. Maybe some day browsers will interface with fprintd, I have a fingerprint reader already which I trust.
