I personally can't wait for passkeys to remove the infuriating path of: unlock pw manager to get username -> click next -> unlock again now that the pw field is available. That's been the worst regression since the mainstreaming of sso
Why do some sites not show the username and password field at the same time?
SSO. When your service has accounts where authentication goes through SSO, showing a password field too those users doesn't make any sense. So they just ask for a username/email address, then either redirect through SSO (if applicable) or ask for a password if it's not an SSO account.
- stupidly to prevent username saving
- decrease credential stuffing
I see how passkeys can be beneficial for 1password as people could just login to anything with their 1password master password and not store or reach out for their phone every 30s.
I wish them well. I wonder if it's time already to ship websites with just passkeys support instead of user/pw, social login, passkeys.
It has the potential to simplify authentication a lot while making it safer.
