    Could you explain how? In terms of capabilities, YubiKeys support the proprietary Yubi authentication protocol and the open FIDO protocols. The Yubi auth protocol is very handy for compatibility reasons because it acts as a keyboard to perform the authentication. I’m not happy about that, but that auth protocol is necessary for some applications and usage scenarios that i have.

    What does the other key do that YubiKeys can’t?
