What are you talking about? KeepassXC, to my knowledge, is not dependent on any TPM, snd it does support passkeys.

devices themselves can act as passkeys

I didn't say a device needs a TPM to support passkeys - I said I believe it it needs one to be a passkey

Thank you for your passive aggressive response caused by poor reading comprehension, though

From what I understand, "passkey" refers to software, so no such thing as "device being a passkey". Unlike a hardware key.
