    Great question! "Need" probably isn't the right word. "Strongly desire" or "greatly prefer" would more accurate.

    The reason is that I have lots of different devices with different port types. Some of my newer devices only have USB-C ports, while my older devices only have USB-A ports, and I'd really like to have just "one key to rule them all," so to speak.

    I know that I could buy a little USB-A/C adapter dongle and keep that on the same keychain with the MFA key, but that introduces a degree of fragility that I'd prefer to avoid if possible.

    That being said, if I found a hardware MFA key with all of the features I listed except for USB-C, then I'd happily accept the dongle compromise, because most of my devices (even the old ones) support Bluetooth, so I'd still have that as a backup option in case the dongle fails.

  11. Here be me dongles.

    (I went digging in my dongle box for a Firewire 400 to 800 adapter, which I found, and noted how many Apple-made dongles I have accumulated over the years. And, so, I share.)

    (The Apple-made dongles represent but a small fraction of the overall dongle population in said box o' dongles, mind.)
