For the average person on the street, passkeys in Apple/Google are a huge benefit because they mitigate phishing attacks, password reuse, etc. Law enforcement and nation-states are not really a concern for them. But you're right, the vendor lock-in is real. Going through all the passkeys and adding another one when you leave the ecosystem of a single vendor is a lot of work. But as @danny mentioned, you can choose to store them in something like Bitwarden if you need the convenience of a roaming passkey. That’s fine for, in my opinion, 90% of services. For my most “valuable assets,” I use two hardware tokens from two different vendors. Thats my approach Bitwarden + two different hardware tokens.
