This is a weird thread. Lots of complaints about lock in and companies managing your keys, both of which are easily avoidable, the exact same way you'd do so with your passwords.
Also the people talking about added complexity? I'm convinced all the complaints are from people who haven't set one up or used one and are immediately writing it off. Adding one is a single click of a button.
Then to sign in I literally just get a thumbprint request on my phone after entering my username. It's far far simpler than passwords and MFA.
I'm never using biometrics on any device. Fuck that
