Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Yubico is merging with ACQ Bure and intends to go public
https://github.com/google/OpenSK works, it runs on something like this $15 board. Could do with a case though.

WebAuthn, and Only WebAuthn
There are a huge number of other vendors supporting Webauthn apart from Yubikey. (From the top of my head Nitrokey, Solo, Tomu, Mooltipass, Ledger, Trezor, Google Titan, OnlyKey, Token2).
You could also use the system TPM (https://github.com/psanford/tpm-fido).
A brief search didn't yield any FIDO2 software-only solutions for Linux, but I see no reason why in principle you couldn't implement it (perhaps interfacing https://github.com/google/OpenSK through hidg - similar projects do exist for U2F).

Apple, Google, and Microsoft commit to expanded support for FIDO standard
Cloudflare does, using a security key not found in the FIDO Metadata Service will unfortunately not work. This precludes the use of any hacker-friendly solution (making your own).
> Supported: All security keys found in the FIDO Metadata Service 3.0, unless they have been revoked for security reasons.
https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/44068890480...
Attestation keys, as they're currently used, aren't very "privacy friendly" and it's much worse for those who wish to create their own key.
> Usually, the attestation private key is shared between a batch of at least 100,000 security keys of the same model. If you build your own OpenSK, your private key is unique to you. This makes you identifiable across registrations: Two websites could collaborate to track if registrations were attested with the same key material. If you use OpenSK beyond experimentation, please consider carefully if you want to take this privacy risk.

Phone May Soon Replace Many of Your Passwords
There are a number of FOSS solutions.
- https://github.com/google/OpenSK <- DIY solution
- https://solokeys.com/
- https://www.nitrokey.com/
The issue with any FOSS solution is that FIDO requires an attestation private key which is shared between a batch of at least 100,000 security keys. Using a DIY or cli app (application running on the host) solution will likely mean you'll be generating that private key yourself, this makes you identifiable across registrations.

Login with a Public Ed25519 Key
I'm not sure what you're replying to--this scheme is much closer to self-signed X509 client certs, not FIDO. But regarding FIDO, it does not prevent user-controlled hardware; it's up to RPs to choose if they require specific device manufacturers or not.
In my experience, the vast majority of (consumer) RPs do not require specific batch attestation, which is why you can make your own FIDO key: https://github.com/google/OpenSK.
I am under the impression support for attestation was controversial in FIDO--it's clearly useful for enterprise scenarios (e.g. where an enterprise requires some silly certification like FIPS: https://support.yubico.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016614760-Ac...), but there's always the risk that consumer-facing RPs require it for no good reason.
My employer requires FIPS certification due to FedRAMP; I'd be interested in how you would propose to change FIDO such that--as now--I can use a single key for work and for all my consumer needs while eliminating attestation.

Thinking about Passwords
I'm currently experimenting with Ed25519 signatures in place of passwords for website authentication:
Git repo: https://github.com/62726164/ed25519-login
Test website: https://gen.go350.com/
I plan to write an Android and iOS app (someday) that has the same functionality as ed25519-login. We need to go password less, but the complexity of webauthn is too much IMO.
I'm looking for feedback and appreciate any suggestions.

Ask HN: What is your “I don't care if this succeeds” project?
https://gen.go350.com/login
https://github.com/62726164/ed25519-login
I built a website that uses public Ed25519 keys for user authentication (rather than passwords). Users sign the current Unix Epoch time (with the private Ed25519 key) and paste that base64 encoded signature into the login form.
I don't care if the idea succeeds or not, I use it for myself. I like simple things and I feel webauthn is too complex.
