@encthenet@flyovercountry.social You can use Passkeys with 1Password, independent of iCloud. I’m sure other password managers also have that feature. Or you can do what I do and use physical passkeys like a YubiKey. And passkeys were never meant to be a 2FA. The FIDO2 protocol still allows for 2FA, though.

  • @JensHannemann@mastodon.online Well, they might not have been intended to be 2FA, but most people talk of them this way, and I hear very zero about passkeys need a 2FA token in addition to them. But the whole 2FA thing failed once the token was merged to the phone and 2FA codes were saved to the same password manager that has all the passwords and allowed to access both from either the computer or your phone. I pointed this out years ago, but most people just shrugged and accepted the risk of not actually having 2FA anymore.
