FIDO Alliance publishes new spec to let users move passkeys across providers

I had hope for passkeys, with all the interop-promises.

It turned out that no (mainstream) passkey provider allows backups however, making them infinitely worse than just using passwords.

Maybe this will help, but fuck me, it’s all complicated, especially for a damn foundational security mechanism!

It could be so simple, just look at SSH keys, which I think largely use the same principle.

You can create backup keys by creating more passkeys.
