Passkeys are one exception to the familiar pattern of “we give you more SeCuRiTY so we can spy on you more and control your behaviour better”.
They actually are more secure. Problem is, a lot of technical issues with it still, a ton of stuff not working correctly yet
I’m still appalled that my Yubikey / FIDO2 still doesnt work on Firefox. I have it as a passkey for GitHub, realized it doesnt work on Firefox, so they just prompt me for my password. That seems backwards to have password as a fallback, too.

I think that’s a you specific problem. Mine works fine with Firefox, and has for a good long while. Could anything be blocking it?
