I like the idea, but the implementation is a bit jank rn, since there are like 10 different places a passkey can be stored

i like coffee, crypto, animals, plants, drones, 3D printing, midjourney, and stickers

If you use a password manager it doesn’t make a practical difference (and is more annoying to manage)

i do they're more secure in general shares the same kinda tech as crypto with keys. with my iphone it's pretty seamless using them

1Password is the shit tho. as a startup cofounder i had to manage 100s of credentials, many of which were rotated regularly. it was tough sometimes even using their tools

I can't figure out why anyone would want to use them.

* Local passkeys: device gone, access lost forever.
* Cloud backup: potential CIA backdoor and black market data leak.
* Password manager: just use a password bro.

When I started digging into them it did smell of vendor lock-in 😵‍💫

never; they are worse than strong, well-managed passwords.

wait? the smart guys been telling me i needta passkey asap, but i've been too lazy to get it going. do you use them?

Whatever your decentralized, borderless, neutral, censorship-resistant open blockchain question is, the answer is YES… to Crypto!

Agree.  It gets harder and harder to just say no.

They're convenient but annoying to manage & keep track of
