   @sl https://nu.federati.net/url/277271 [www sami-lehtinen net] links to an article "getting started with security keys" Interesting.
   
   I bought a Yubico-branded security key last year, but haven't done much with it yet. (In fact, I made sure that all three sons, my mom, and @amic@nulled.red each had one. I can't recall whether I gave one to #lazyNephew.)

     Long article, with frequent digressions. I think it needs more sane updates policy. But worth reading.

     https://www.zdnet.com/article/best-security-keys/ [www zdnet com] Rates some security keys ... be aware their links may be affilliate (commissions paid to ZDNet if thou clickest or buyest). Still worth a quick browse, IMO.

     @geniusmusing No, I have the blue one that costs about $20. I tend not to do FIPS for personal things because it takes too long for those standards to update when "best" security advice changes. One can end up with worse security because of choosing FIPS compatibility.
