Support WebAuthn Passkeys

[era]

Firefox supports WebAuthn, but as far as I could tell only with hardware tokens. I could not find a word about Firefoxs support of Passkeys (like Apple announced recently) anywhere

Personally I don't know why passkeys werent adopted much sooner, it seems such a long hanging fruit to just store the key in the FF password manager.

I use FF to support a web where there is not only one option, like Chrome, but FF keeps falling behind and behind instead of being at the forefront. This should be a top priority.

I see. Yeah, on Windows 11 I had no issues, but I have dual boot, this is an issue in Linux, because it only works in Chromium and well, I'm not totally dependant on QR Passkeys, but they are just faster to use than going into my auth app and looking for the 2FA code of that specific website...

Yeah, sadly Firefox refuses to implement native passkey support, even for operating systems without proper support.

There is still no Information as to when Firefox will implement native Passkey support right?

it’s kinda sad bc I’d love to use Firefox but on Linux I can’t use my Passkeys stored on my phone, whereas it works with Brave (or any chromium browser for that regard)

Please implement native passkey support. It's an absolute no brainer for all browsers.

Native Passkey support would be a big deal especially for linux systems where Chromium based browsers already have such a feature.
