wommert.646: > Been thinking about something similar recently. OnlyKeys interested me with their support for far more static passwords than Yubikeys. > > I think YK is still considered the gold standard but if I’m just throwing an OnlyKey with a few static passwords into a home safe / safe deposit box / etc. for disaster recovery it seems fine. You can put a PIN on it and give that to a friend maybe. Thank you for the suggestion. But having a Key with a PIN would just move the backup liability from my phone to the key. Lukas: > Write it down on paper and keep it in a safe. It is a good idea to have a water and fireproof safe for important stuff such as your passport, birth certificate, and in this case, a written master password. I don’t want to have a single point of failure. I want to spread the backup
