Ahh, sorry, didn’t see that part.
Is it a problem with the PlayStation app not wanting to play nicely with the deep linking of Bitwarden?
Do other passkey apps work with it?

I use both Bitwarden and Apple's native Passwords.app and just save a passkey for each app. Usually you can name the passkey on the website/in the app as well.
This is also the system I use when saving 2FA TOTP codes as well so I guess I'm used to it, but it makes good sense to me to have reduncancy in my password apps. Also I lock up *the apps themselves* with passkeys in the respective app for ease of use.

Have you tried Bitwarden? I like their implementation best and its cross-platform.

Having seen the amount of people still keeping their passwords on sticky notes/on random scraps of paper/in the notepad.app on their phone/pc when there's literally a built-in biometrically secure app on the same device -- yeah, passkeys are safer for the *average person* for this alone. It forces you to use what you could already be using to store passwords in the first place. It also cuts down on tech-supporting the users that bork their profiles/lost their passwords/devices as we can verify manually and send an updated passkey out. From there. they can just save however they wish.

Not only do I have to support these kinds of users, I also have to log into no less than 3 machines with several realms of security at any given moment. Passkeys has turned the 10 minute first login of the day ritual into a 1 minute speedrun of me clicking "Use this Passkey" or scanning the QR code/tapping notification on my phone.

Bonus: My passwords don't expire now because they didn't get used in the first place.

@MicroWave

All media everywhere needs to just start a “be for real” campaign whenever they’re about to interview him, and perhaps he’ll just self-censor into oblivion…

@agitatedpotato yeah, no doubt those are factors indeed, especially the mental health one.
Wife made a succinct point at how much more stressful life in the States is in general with regard to the “keep up or die” lifestyle we have here and I feel it’s a major contributor.

Miss one paycheck or slip on a bar of soap in the shower and wind up with a $20000 hospital bill and cause several years of worry and paranoia (as an example). Other places in the world don’t have to deal with that, hence they also don’t have the mental illness rates we do
(Again simple example for a complex variable just for illustration purposes; don’t flame pls 😉)

So is it just mass shootings in the top places for murders overall going down or just in general or...

I certainly *feel* like I didn't see as many in the news this year but then again 1/4 of the year has been consumed by a mass genocidal rampage half a world away and its definitely sucking up all the media attention...
