Can no-one help? There has to be something better than forever suffering under the tyranny of two-factor authentication for just bloody EVERYTHING (www.pcgamer.com)

The better alternatives are worse though. Key based authentication would allow you to effectively authenticate a trusted account on a trusted device with a single action, but requires you to not lose your keys, or to have a multifactor fallback. This is what I want tbh - I tap my yubikey when I set up my phone, and now it doesn't require passwords. For extra security, require tap on boot.
