If I first signup for a service on my iPhone, then want to login on a Linux desktop, for example, how would I login if the passkey is not on my system, and I can’t login on the desktop to say I’m me?
Maybe they sorted all this out so it “just works”, but there seems to be so many potential pitfalls, that I feel like I’d need to spend weeks researching stuff and testing edge cases before I could feel safe using it. No one is going to do that.
With a password, I know it works now, and it will work in 40 years. I don’t have that same kind of confidence with a passkey. Even if it’s great, if people don’t adopt it in mass, it will fade away and be removed, so how deep do I want to go? This isn’t something I want to be an early adopter on, at least not for anything I care about.
