Not being able to access passkeys seems like a big issue. How do you back them up or migrate them to another service? If the answer is, you don’t, you have to regenerate them…. besides being a PITA if you have a lot of logins, it means that every service that uses passkeys will also have to implement alternative means to login. This negates some of the security passkeys give you. (2/3)
