yubikey passkey auto fails on samsung devices

Here is a "story": 1. I want to sign in into github using a passkey stored on my yubikey 2. I plug in my yubikey 5C into my phone (samsung z flip 6) 3. I open github.com in firefox 4. I press "sign in with a passkey" 5. Firefox opens some samsung chooser, I choose "other devices > show qr code" 6. login fails and firefox opens Google's prompt to enter pin for the yubikey (but the login already failed, so it does not matter)

My roommate experiences the same bug with his yubikey and his samsung S24.

Doing the same in chrome works. Instead of opening samsung thing it opens Google thing directly where I can choose "use a different device" and it works after that (no login fail).

Is this a known issue? Can I do something to fix it or at least debug it?

(images are, in order, "prompt when using 'sign in with a passkey' in firefox", "login fails as soon as I tap 'show QR code'", and "prompt when using 'sign in with a passkey' in chrome)

Since version 134 of Firefox Android has been out, it crashes EVERY TIME when I try ot use the "back" gesture on my Xiaomi 14(i.e. swiping from right or left side of the screen) I tried Firefox 134, Iceraven 2.27 (also based on the same Gecko) - they act the same. In the same time I also have Waterfox, based in the previous version of Firefox 133, and it responds properly. I guess it is related to the latest version only. Here's the crash log:

Mobile Phone Firefox Android Browser Support of Proton Account

My mobile phone is Samsung Galaxy A54. Having purchased Proton Unlimited on Novemver 27, 2024, I had Security breeches using the Brave Browser coupled with ProtonVPN. Immediately, I uninstalled both. Samsung reset the phone. (The final confirmation of being "hacked" occured when finding a new App installed without my knowledge; having a Contact Address with the Street Address: "Hacker Lane". Why so obvious? I could list other red flags that I wasn't certain about, but don't have the space here to explain. I have two Proton Accounts that are linked. I had to access them for 2FA linked to Google, PayPal, & Samsung. Am unsure if it's safe to continue using Proton Pass. I changed my Google, PayPal, & Samsung passwords so that they won't match the previous ones stored with Proton's Password Manager. I don't feel secure storing my Passwords with Chrome or FireFox, either. The Samsung "Reset" was not a "Hard Reset". I have Yubikeys stored on my Yubico Authenticator THAT I HAVE NOT USED...though purchasing them on the same day that I signed on wirh Proron Unlimited. Can't figure out how to add or use them with Accounts. With a hard phone reset I may danage the installed Keys. Can you help with these issues? Thanks...for any insights.

Firefox beta usually works OK but random webpages either take ages to load or even hang indefinitely. Most of the responses I've seen on this subject simply ask for more info re websites, extensions etc but other browsers don't have these problems, so it looks like a core Firefox thing.
