Setting up 2FA on Yubico Authenticator on backup keys?

Maybe I’m glossing over something basic or making a glaring error in my workflow but after setting 2FA with the Yubico Authenticator on one key, I can’t figure out how to set the backups or how to give the backup keys the same certificate to generate codes.

Websites with Passkeys allow additional spots but for accounts still stuck on authenticator codes, it only allows one slot. What am I missing here?

Use case for 5CNano?

I’m fairly new to this whole security journey but want to get one to secure my accounts but am having some trouble understanding the use case for the 5CNano.

The NFC and USB ones make sense in that it works like a physical key to an authenticator but how does the Nano work if it’s always plugged in?

If my device is lost/stolen with the Nano on it, how is it protecting my logins if the ‘key is plugged into the lock’ so to speak?

Maybe I’m misunderstanding how it all works so if someone could explain it simply, that would be super helpful.

NxtPaper 70 Pro Bluetooth and screen

Has anyone noticed BT quality issues with the 70 pro?

TCL’s site only mentions BT 5.4 but nothing about aptX. I’m curious if it’s noticeable without the aptX codecs on nicer BT headphones.

I checked this out in store and it really surprised me how snappy and functional the phone felt. Granted I was just swiping around and not in actual use but it honestly doesn’t feel like it’s price tag.

I really like that screen and the associated purported battery life.

There is one flaw I feel could be improved on and that’s having an OLED screen. It seems counterintuitive but having true black/off pixels would make the screen experience that much better.
