    that’s not the point, passkeys are not vendor centric, they are a standard. you don’t want to duplicate a passkey for the same reason you don’t want to copy an SSH private key on multiple devices. it’s a security feature that allows disabling the account access in case the device becomes compromised (lost, stolen, infected, etc.)

          exactly, but is a relevant amount of people using it outside of proprietary apps like whatsapp?

          no use in being open if in practice its controlled by monopolistic corporations.

          i could use chrome or android for this example.
