I'll switch when it's fully implemented in open source and only I am the one with the private key. Until then its just more corporate blowjobs with extra steps.
That’s exactly how passkeys work. The server never has the private key.
KeePass has passkey support
And we all remember the huge drama about it because they allowed for taking the keys out and backup them up.
Passkeys are an ancient authentication setup, have always been better than passwords and are finally getting traction.
What do you means by this? What part do you want to be open source? Passkey are just cryptographic keys, no part of that requires anything unfree. There's aready an open source authentication stack you can use to implement them. You can store them completely locally with KeyPassXC for selfhost Vaultwarden to store them remotely. Both are open source?
You can add them in vaultwarden.
