Yeah, they're not pushing it because it matches some far-right authoritarian ideology Meta itself has, they're pushing it because conservatives taunting libs who fall for it and try to talk reason into conservatives drives tons of engagement.

I don't mean that it's not old, I mean that it's still got some more room for improvement. Passkeys, for instance, are an attempt at improving the user experience.

It still defends against one failure mode (the website gets hacked but you're ok) but yeah, obviously if you get hacked and the hacker knows how to get your vault out then you're 100% screwed.

My suggestion is always hardware 2FA, even though it's not as mature as the other systems. Personally I have two Yubikeys (in case one breaks/gets lost) but it does mean that I need to add TOTPs to both of them each time I add a new 2FA.

Lol what. We have machines and automation now. We can just make manufacturing equipment "suffer" while the humans "get ahead".

The zero-sum worldview has been dead since the industrial revolution. Any widespread suffering at this point is the fault of humans.

Edit: unless you're trying to say something else?
