I like passkeys. I'm not able to be all in on them yet but I feel like they simplify my life. I have hardware keys and register all of them with sites that support them. Bitwarden for everything else.

I don't feel like that makes me dependant on any of the big tech cos, but I do recognize everyone won't be able to pull off such a setup.

My argument was never that tech-savvy individuals won't find a way not to be dependent on big tech. There will always be a few people from the previous era who find a way to be more independent. My argument was only about the majority, about the future of society, and how eventually people won't have much of a choice, because there will be future steps by big tech to integrate more and more people.
