Description: Ubuntu 19.04
Release: 19.04

1) Open Online accounts and select google (From settings or during OS setup)
2) enter username and password.

What I expect: I get the prompt to plug-in my 2 factor hardware key
What actually happens: I get a prompt saying, "You can only use your Security keys with Google Chrome"

Not sure if this is actually fixable, I know desktop firefox has hidden settings to allow u2f, but not sure if that extends to the embedded browsers (if gnome-online-accounts even uses an embedded firefox for its browser)

Thank you for your bug report, could you also report it upstream on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-online-accounts/issues/ ? They probably have more ideas about the topic that us as distributors do

[Kenneth Fechter (kenneth-fechter)]

Looks like there is a similar open bug, so I will add a comment to it with additional info
