Meanwhile mobile Firefox doesn't even support YubiKey / FIDO2 for some godforsaken reason.

Maybe you're on iOS?
Ah. If we're talking mobile, all bets are off. FIDO prompts require Apple and Google to provide the necessary APIs for third-party devs to use, and are still somewhat new. It's likely that since iOS browsers are still just re-skinned WebKit (until the EU stuff settles and Mozilla implements Gecko on iOS), FF on iOS can leverage the OS APIs, but making it work with Gecko on Android requires more work.
I was referring to desktop, where those limitations aren't a hindrance.
Yep, I had said
Just saying it's sad that FF mobile on Android is basically the only time it doesn't work.
