Perhaps try Authnkey which is more recently updated. If that doesn’t work then some details like which security key you are using and over which protocol (USB or NFC) would be good to know.

Maybe people don’t care but some do. I am sure I am not alone in caring. I believe every user should have the right to know what is running on their system and where it came from. What they choose to do with that information is up to them.

Sigh. I knew uv and ruff were too good to be true. Just hope the community can fork before it all goes to crap.

Ultimately that is your choice. I personally will not use researchxxl’s version considering they appeared out of nowhere and there was 0 communication about the transition. For now I will continue to use Catfriend’s version and perhaps switch to nel0x’s in the future.

It can be implemented well but often isn’t. Likely eID will force you to use an mobile app (no website or Linux app, yay) that is only available on Apple’s app store or GPlay. And if you want to run a degoogled android ROM good luck with that when they force Play Integrity. Basically shoving everyone into either the Apple or Google walled garden along with the complementary spyware of both gardens and also screwing anyone who uses a non-smart phone either out of choice or circumstance.
