Tell HN: GitHub no longer supporting unauthenticated `git://`
> Because AFAIK, (Fido) yubikey support is still missing.
Correct, hopefully Microsoft will provide an updated SSH client soon. It only requires recompiling OpenSSH with the correct flags.
Alternatively, use these build instruction for openssh with FIDO for windows:

> Using either the PKCS#11 support or the gpg applet requires some extra piece of software
For those wanting to do that, here are some ways:
Using a premade dll:

Or with a middleware:

Using the Hello API:

Given how many people came with their own ways, I believe there's enough demand for Microsoft to fix that.

Any chance we can get something that can be used with WSL 2? Personally, I prefer to use MX on everything I can. WSL-DistroLauncher/README.md at master · microsoft/WSL-DistroLauncher · GitHub

Gentoo on WSL? Sure!
if you want to fancy it up with icons/title like the store distros, its not too bad to tweak the reference launcher, and feed it a stage 3 ( recompressed to .tar.gz since last time I checked last year, it didn't support .tar.xz)
