My take: (1) I've had passwords handled pretty well for a long time now: same password manager for something like 15 years; (2) companies are pushing pretty hard to get me to use passkeys instead.

From (2) I assume that the companies see benefits to themselves. I don't care about benefits to them. I don't see much in the way of benefits to me, so I'm not changing anything if I don't have to.

I'll admit to not having looked into passkeys all that much. Someday, I might. But for the time being, I don't see much point. I imagine that eventually I'll be more or less forced to deal with passkeys in at least some contexts. Will leave that for later.

For now, it's all a big "no thanks" from me.
