I have a few yubikeys and it’s a manual process to sync a new key last time I tried
I keep all my TOTP keys on an encrypted usb drive in a safe. When I lose a key, I manually add all the TOTP accounts onto the new key from my safe
Passkeys are a different story. Every account I need to make sure I have multiple yubikeys registered. When I lose one, I get in via a second key and then add the replacement one.
It’s a pain but it’s a model that makes sense to me. Lose the key? Time to reach for my backup key.
Yeah it feels pretty dumb to have to register all of my keys with each service, but as far as I can tell it's the least dumb thing.
