Works perfectly in 1Password. One-click sign-in is awesome! I don't understand the hate towards passkeys. Managing passwords for non-techies is infinitely worse in my experience.


I’m not disputing that passwords suck. It’s just that the experience with passkeys hasn’t matched the vision I’ve been sold when I first read about it.

I am sure a more mainstream solution such as Google/Apple/Microsoft/1Password’s password manager would be a better experience. But the portability and data sovereignty of using a self hosted open source password manager such as Keepass is a requirement I have and like I mentioned, the supermajority of my online accounts have zero passkey support even 2 years in.


Bitwarden extension does passkeys too, and you can self-host the backend (either using official images or vaultwarden).


Yeah I recently started using Bitwarden with passkeys on a handful of sites and the UX is very good.
