Comment on Reevaluating my password management

If you’ve been using passkeys, you’ll need to generate new ones when you switch. AFAIK, they aren’t exportable from Google or Apple. Which, among other reasons, is why I’ll just stick to high-entropy passwords. I’ve had some sites like Amazon try to sneakily make me register passcodes, I’ve had to go back and tear them out before they screw me somehow.

Can you expand on this? I’m not sure what this means. Thanks.

For some reason, when I registered my phone number for delivery notifications, it made a passkey and registered it with my account. It never prompted me to save the passkey, so I had no idea where it was supposed to be used. I immediately deleted it because I was concerned I wasn’t going to be able to log in if I logged out without knowing what that passkey was and had it in my password manager.
