You reset your passkey the same way you reset your password. But you’ll find that passkeys make it harder to switch between password…

    Yeah this guy is grossly overestimating the intelligence of businesses when it comes to software. I’ve seen a major company spending 20000+ a month on aws for servers they never used. And that was just for a single site, I can only imagine what’s going on in other branches of the company.

      Not at all, Google, Meta, and MS spend a lot of resources resetting passwords across literally tens of millions of accounts. It ads up at scale, and it’s not even insignificant at the enterprise level.
