The page doesn't state it explicitly; is this Apple's implementation for FIDO2?

The video presentation said it was part of the FIDO standard.

Ah, okay. I'm not interested in Apple's periodic product ads so I didn't really understand why this was linked again, especially since it's been available for a while now.

It’s been available in beta/nightly form for a little while, I think.

But at todays WWDC presentation they announced it as an official complete feature for the next releases of their OSes.

(That’s why there is so much Apple stuff, presentation just eneed about 15m ago)

It is linked because it was covered in the keynote.

And what is new is that it looks to become a widely supported FIDO standard i.e. Google/Microsoft are onboard whereas before it was an iOS/macOS only technology.

Their announcement last month already indicated that it would become widely supported Soon (TM): https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2022/05/apple-google-and-micr...

I'm sort of expecting Google to follow suit with the next Android release, and perhaps Microsoft after that when the next iteration of Windows 11 drops (or at the same time, as Microsoft doesn't have a mobile market and relies on Android and iOS integrations).
