His whole premise is undermined by him not doing any research on the topic before deciding to write a blog post. Proton passkeys for instance, are cross platform, and the ability to transfer passkeys between devices is one of the features being worked on by the other providers.

This is the “Technology” community which isn’t for people who are actually tech-savvy in any functional way, it’s just for gadget-head laymen.

It’s 260-40 atm. That sort of ratio is a very easy sign that there’s something wrong and I often don’t bother reading the article if the ratio is that high.

Proton passkeys are stored in a password manager, which he specifically calls out.

If you have a password managed and know how to use it, you’re already a lot less susceptible to the problem that passkeys are trying to solve.

Personally, I think passkeys are great for tech-savvy users, but I wouldn’t dream of recommending them to non tech-savvy people. Password managers are still used by the minority, that needs to be fixed before passkeys are useful.
