    My experience with my yubikey is that it just works. I know that’s not terribly useful info, but it’s really all I have after several years of occasionally using it. Oh, it’s been on my keychain all that time so isn’t terribly flimsy.

      When nitro key makes a physical key that has biometrics built into it, or hell even a physical pin pad, I’m 100% going to use them.

    I’ve only used Yubikey when work mandated them for a while. Didn’t last long until they moved to a push-to-phone-app system instead. It was fine, just irritating to carry around one more physical thing.

    And I prefer a smartphone based app in personal life. I use Authy, keeping my backup codes in several safe locations and separate from where I keep password vault backups.

    There’s probably some super duper FOSS alt to Authy but I haven’t spent the time to look for it.

    Not enough sites support them and for some reason they haven’t made one that supports USB-A, USB-C, and NFC on one key. Seems like the most obvious configuration to cover everything.

    Yubikeys are rock solid. I have several bio keys that read fingerprints and I have no complaints.
