The passkey on your phone stopped working when you set one up on your laptop? I would expect the site to allow one per device instead of one per account.

Some sites only allow one public key per account…

Which is really stupid of them but technically within spec currently.

It seemed that way, it asked me to scan a QR code on my phone to link it, which didn’t happen before.

Or maybe the option to use my phone was some older auth method, where I’d use the fingerprint reader on the phone to confirm a login on the laptop. I thought that was a passkey, but that doesn’t fit with what I’m reading about what it does now.
