Firefox needs passkey support ASAP

I have to use chrome to set up passkeys. What am I doing wrong

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

My bad, I wasn't being clear. Firefox now supports passkeys, but afaik doesn't have a service for it. So you can use e.g. Bitwarden in Firefox, with Bitwarden storing the passkey, and Firefox just "handing it over".

I've had however a couple of sites that refused to create passkeys in Firefox for my Bitwarden, but that seems to be site specific.

It's an Issue known on Github.

TLDR: The Website is supposed to give you a Value as a Integer. However, some Auth-Backends used by some Websites give the Value as a String instead. Bitwarden doesn't parse the String for security Reasons and so the signup fails. We can't really do anything except wait for websites to fix the Bug.

So how is that different from their official addon?

Right... I use multiple browser windows as tab groups. Tried tree tabs, but since I keep one window per topic I rarely get enough tabs open to need them.
