Passkeys: A Shattered Dream

This is why I’m not interested in passkeys unless I can use it with my password manager (which I probably can at this point). It would also be nice to see the spec for these specifically address lock-in and provide anti-lock-in measures.

KeePassXC has support for passkeys now. However I've only managed to make it work with GitHub. Bitwarden does not work for now (although their passkey implementation for log-in is reportedly in beta).

Not sure what your password manager is, but 1Password supports them and its a pretty smooth experience.

The idea of a passkey is that it's bound to a device, and you can have more than one passkey. Think of a YubiKey, just that you can use your Phone or your PC instead. You basically have designated hardware that is always allowed to just login to your account...

Then why can it be backed up to the cloud?

My passkeys are in 1Password and work on every new device I set up.
