Software U2F with Fingerprint (On Linux)
This project aims to support U2F / FIDO2 using fingerprint reader on Linux (via libfprint). The goal is to have the same user experience with 2FA using Windows Hello.
This project is based on https://github.com/danstiner/rust-u2f with minor modification (see my fork: https://github.com/ngxson/rust-u2f-pkexec)
Link to the project: https://github.com/ngxson/softu2f-fprintd-docker

Apple, Google, and Microsoft commit to expanded support for FIDO standard
I've considered adding FIDO2 support to the software-only U2F token I wrote ( https://github.com/danstiner/rust-u2f). It's a fair bit of work though, and I am not sure how comfortable I am with passwordless login unless the keys are kept purely in hardware such as a TPM.
That said, my reading of this post is that FIDO2 support will get built into Chromium directly, which is itself open source. Or if you do want a hardware key but running open software, I'd definitely recommend https://solokeys.com/, I've been following them for a long time.
Also there was some related discussion on this same article last week: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31274677

Google is going to ban “less secure sign in method”
On a Workspace account you only need U2F token emulator (https://github.com/danstiner/rust-u2f woks fine) and thenn you can setup u2f first and add normal TOTP in second step. But u2f must stay there. I don't have a personal account to try if it works the same.

Ask HN: Is Google phasing out Authenticator/TOTP?
As it becomes easier to emulate hardware tokens[1], Google may start limiting which ones it accepts. I believe they can use attestation keys to do that.
This is just a softer layer of security to slow down less sophisticated mass signup attempts.
They may very well eventually phase out TOTP, under the justification that it is not as secure, but I would be shocked if they ever retire the highly insecure SMS verification.
TOTP is really easy to implement, and adds a ton of value. I have a oneliner that takes a screenshot, extracts the QR code with zbarimg, and adds it to my pass[2] password database, which then hooks back into my browser. I use it whenever it is available because it is so low effort.

Does 2FA actually prevent phishing?
GitHub has a couple of others listed, but I have not tested them personally: Example https://github.com/danstiner/rust-u2f

Need help building IR Emitter with Howdy
As the title says, I have Howdy already on my system, but have run into issues when trying to build the IR driver from here.

Howdy – Windows Hello style facial authentication for Linux
> Unfortunately Howdy does not have control over these IR emitters
Wasn't sure if "does not" means can't, so I did a search and discovered this interesting development: https://github.com/EmixamPP/linux-enable-ir-emitter
