For users who previously reused passwords across all their sites, passkeys are a huge step-up.
That is exactly why passkeys are a good thing. Basically everyone reused passwords everywhere.

Maybe 5 or 10 years ago, but who doesn’t use a password manager these days? They generate random passwords and remember them for you

Do you know any non tech people, especially over 40? Literally none of them uses a password manager.

Most of the non-techy people I know use the password manager built into their Web browser at the very least.

“use” I bet it just saves everything automatically, and they don’t even know their passwords are there. just “oh look, my password has appeared, lets click it!”
