I use 1password and it seems to work though.
Support passkeys
I can confirm google's passkey can't be made in Orion currently. Github passkey works fine.

Haarolean I found out that passkeys are working, but the Bitwarden installed under popular extensions is so old that it doesn’t support them. You have to install a newer version, like this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bitwarden-password-manager/
tl;dr the current implementation of Orion's passkeys seems to be implemented in its own way, rather than using the apple-provided native APIs, resulting in it not working consistently, and not being compatible at times.
Just chiming in here, that I would love to see Orion handle passkeys like Safari does. It currently works well with 1Password when the extension is installed, but for things like Strongbox it doesn't. Safari works consistently every time.
orionlover btw if you change the user agent to "Chrome", you will be able to add a passkey to your google account
Candygoblen123 Oh really I will give it a try
eirk This really baffles me. For one this is preventing using passkeys in the icloud keychain to sign in through Orion.
It really seems like Orion should use the native API rather than their own implementation. In firefox right now I can go to github, click sign in with passkey, and it uses my device passkey and signs me in immediately. I can't do that in Orion.
choccymalk Yeah, being able to sign in using the iCloud Keychain on macOS is important.
We are planning this for next release.
Steps to reproduce:
Using Orion + 1Password + GitHub passkeys doesn't work, receiving an 'Authentication failed' message on GitHub. Compatibility mode changes nothing.
I get the following error in Developer console:
A combination of Safari + 1Password works fine.

Expected behavior:
Able to login using a passkey to GitHub

Apple opened an API to allow 3rd party browsers to use passkeys stored in icloud keychain, https://developer.apple.com/documentation/authenticationservices/passkey-use-in-web-browsers
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/authenticationservices/authenticating-people-by-using-passkeys-in-browser-apps
Chrome is already using this, could it be implemented in orion too?
When logging into a website that they already have a passkey for, stored in icloud keychain, they would be able to use it
