PassKeys.io is really saying there is a workaround when they write ["Phone passkeys (QR code flow) and physical security keys only"](https://www.passkeys.io/compatible-devices). The private part of the passkey should never leave the device it was created on, so by design, it should not sync anywhere else. However, if you have a passkey on your cellphone or YubiKey but want to authenticate on your Linux desktop, then Bluetooth ( or a USB cable) connected to your desktop should offer a workaround. It worked for me before but not sure which Linux PC and which web browser on which Linux machine. If your Linux desktop has supported TPM hardware, then i do not see why it would not work. US DOD does it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1989976 Title: [upstream] wishlist: Passkeys should be supported To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/1989976/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
