I've only seen client certs used in contexts where an IT department assigns them to employees. Has anyone had success with these on public facing websites?

Extra hardware seem cool, but I've also rarely seen people using them. I'm guessing the added cost is a deterrent.

before the current wave of password managers most people didnt use more than one password. they made it easy enough for people to use. now theyre everywhere. the things you list above are the new oddball ui issues, smooth them out a but amd people will use them too.

I see lots of folks in the tech industry using password managers and using the password manager to create and fill passwords. I've also seen people use password managers to remember the ~1 password they self created and consistently reuse.

I'd like to see more password manager use, but changing user behavior is hard. Google suggests <25% of users do so.
