I rarely use my smartphone and find it a bit annoying to have to use it for 2FA through apps. I wish to get physical passkeys that will allow me to login to my laptop.
I have heard of YubiKey although I haven’t given it any serious consideration since it is closed source. (My super-tin-foiled friend who introduced me to this world of privacy taught me to never trust a closed-source solution… _long _ story).
Are there any FLOSS versions of Yubikey? Can they be used to log into a Linux machine? Or for banking?
(Disclaimer: I work there)
Check out @nitrokey. we make Open Source software and hardware security keys that have pretty similar functionality with Yubikeys.

nice, any downsides or issues a yubikey user looking to buy nitrokeys might face?
also: ty for the good work!!
Cant wait for fingerprint keys to make it over to the nitro ecosystem!
