• Big Tech has implemented passkeys in a way that locks users into their platforms rather than providing universal security
  • Passkeys were developed to replace passwords for better account security, but their rollout by Apple and Google has limited their potential
  • Proton Pass offers passkeys that are universal, easy to use, and available to everyone for improved online security and privacy.

      I don’t mean to be pedantic but self hosted isn’t cloud.

        Doesn’t it require cloud activation?

        Yea, I understand, and it’s a perfectly valid choice. But does that disregard people’s preference to not bother with this at all?

          I don’t think I understand the question.

          To be clear, the alternatives are valid choices.

            That was a rhetorical question. What I wanted to say was basically “if it is only supported by Big Tech walled gardens and some open, selfhostable cloud password managers, I am not using such passkeys, because for me it is far more comfortable to have my password manager fully offline”.
