You can have more than one passkey.

You can still use password + 2fa

You can use google oauth.

You can use a YUBI key

You should probably have a primary and secondary auth for every site.

What’s the point of a passkey if you can still use a password

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 hour ago
  1. password + 2FA AND/OR passkey required.
  • baby steps, start with getting them secure, then when most are ready start dropping the password
  • iron out the kinks, give all apps a chance to implement
  • if you only ever login with passkey and it asks you for 2fa, you can scrutinize the page more

You can tell just from the response on this post people aren't all ready for passkey yet, but you can't wait fo them to decide they're ready before you start.

Or just a password that is known to you and only you.
