for people managing multiple accounts how are you handling passkeys?

As probably many of you know, reddit has added support for passkeys and, and they even prompt you to set the passkey in case they judge your account becomes suspicious? You can't continue using the account beyond just browsing without setting it.

afaik, tools like Dolphin and the likes dont have passkey support;.

One way to do handle this would be to do it on your browser and then export the cookies to your multi account manager (what I did)

But reading up on the technical details of passkey, I dont see why it can't be integrated into the multi account manager

So I'm curious how are you guys handling this?

Same here set it via browser, then export cookies into the manager. Surprised none of these tools support passkeys natively yet since WebAuthn isn't that obscure anymore.

I think the browser-first approach is probably the safest option for now. Passkeys are tied more closely to the browser credential system than normal cookies, so multi-account tools need proper WebAuthn/passkey support rather than simply importing session data.

The way I understood it is that it's public key and private key system. the private key is stored on the user device.

But my thinking is that, since password managers can sync private keys across devices, then it would be possible to have some sort of password manager integrated into it handling passkey.

yeah the passkey thing hit harder than expected. keeping older aged accounts from hitting the passkey wall has been about keeping em warm and active on regular patterns. newer accounts though get flagged way quicker if they're cold or jumping between ips too much. ive found setting passkeys in brave then exporting is more stable than some managers

i’ve been handling passkeys through the regular browser and keeping the account session there rather than trying to bypass the requirement if a multi account tool doesn’t support passkeys yet i’d wait for native support instead of relying heavily on cookie transfers
