I think it is quite the opposite for the end user. If apps/websites, begin to replace traditional password login with passkeys, this will be a measurable improvement for average consumers.

Passkeys are meant to replace password-based login whereas TOTP apps are only meant as a 2FA method.

That's completely fair. Appreciate the discourse friend

Admittedly, for some password managers, the passkeys are stored locally and are not accessible in the cloud unencrypted without the decryption keys that exist on devices you authorize.

This may still not make a difference for you though. For me, I consider passkeys, even stored in the cloud, to be enough for the vast majority, so I appreciate these vendors working to make passkeys more easy for the end user.

 

Looks like a huge amount of security vendors are working to have a secure and open standard for passkey portability between platforms.

It is always good to see major collaboration in the security space like this considering the harsh opinions that users of some of these vendors have toward many of the others. I just wish apps and sites would stop making me login with username and password if passkeys are meant to replace that lol.

I've heard of both. I didn't know Horizon was an open world sort of game.

Either way, I completely agree. Even at the old age of 16, I was touched so harshly by that game that it became my favorite game I've ever played after just 2 sessions

This exactly. It is a good thing that these distros have matured enough that the updates are boring. I can only speak for the recent Fedora releases, but I've noticed quite an awesome amount of attention brought to accessibility and usability improvements that we've been waiting on for years. Speaking of Fedora, the next release (Fedora 41) the DNF package manager is getting a major overhaul with it moving to DNF v5 after some delay.

I don't see updates being boring as necessarily bad since that could mean they decide to dedicate an entire major version to focusing on stability as an example. I get the sentiment and I think it's healthy for us to engage with. I just don't think I agree with it at the moment though.

Cryptomator is a fantastic way to securely upload your stuff to cloud storage providers like Google Drive, OneDrive, etc. In my case, I use it to have an encrypted blob of my stuff with me on a drive when I'm out and about.

They also give you the ability to purchase a license independent of Google Play if you didn't want Google to get a cut.

You could save them to an RSS Reader

Thanks friend. Hoping to get my footing in a non-consumer antagonistic forum aggregator lol

I only gotta mention one that everyone should play at least once in their lifetime: Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

This could be really interesting. I don't personally see a use case for me to run Linux apps on Android. I could see myself running android apps on Linux though. Pretty happy to see this.
