Support for hardware 2FA security keys

[MLXXXp]

I would like to use 2 factor authentication (2FA) when I log in to this site but having to enter a code from an authenticator app or received email is inconvenient and time consuming.

I have a Google Titan security key that I use for many other site logins and I am wondering if the ability to use WebAuthn / FIDO2 security keys could be added to this site. It appears that there is an add-on available to enable this:
[DigitalPoint] Security & Passkeys

Thanks for the suggestion.

Is this of interest to anyone else?

Moderately so. It's better security. I rarely need to login because of the keep me logged in option. But if a site is going go through the trouble of offering MFA then it should support HW tokens.

It's kind of a Catch 22 situation.

People don't buy hardware security keys because of the limited number of sites that support them.

Sites don't go to the trouble of implementing support because few people use them.

FWIW, some sites I've used that support them:

• Discourse based forums. (At least every one that I've used.)
• Discord
• Google
• Yahoo Mail
• 𝕏
• Facebook
• Mastodon
