Sure, here's my public ssh key: public.swiley.net/id_rsa.pub I've been using this with everything important and was just waiting for everyone else to realize it was better.

Oh no wait, you wanted some retarded Windows/Apple thing that needs biometrics, locks everything to your pay for service/hardware, and has a worse security model.

Nevermind just use a password.

I agree that passkeys are overly complicated, but they are in no way a worse security model than passwords. That is ludicrous. The password security model is an incredibly low bar to clear if you want better security.

Also, passkeys work fine on systems other than Windows/Apple
