If you’re using KeePassXC, it supports them right now. I’m using them on a few websites with the browser extension. Your mileage may vary, of course.

Bummer... no mention of the drawbacks whatsoever.

Passkeys are FIDO credentials tied to a specific app or website that let you sign in with the same method you use to unlock your device, be that biometrics or a PIN.
As long as you can remember your phone password, you can log in to your accounts.
So... What if your phone is stolen or if you wanted to share a login with your partner?
How do passkeys work then?
And if a very simple pin or phone password is all it takes to gain access to your stuff, isn't it less secure?

Wtf is this...they say password managers aren't very secure, but then recommend Passkeys which is literally the same thing... But less secure because they rely on biometrics which you can't ever change, or a pin which is well..a damn password
Anyone who starts off telling you that they're the most popular and trusted should probably not, in fact, be trusted. Especially if they're calling for not using password managers. Passkeys are interesting in theory, but my understanding is that most of the implementations are just another way for big tech to track you.
