Given they already support standard WebAuthn (passkey or other), I think it’s a pretty safe guess to say they’ll support Yubikeys. I can’t find any written confirmation yet though.

Written confirmation in WSJ (paywall) here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/apple-plans-new-encryption-syst...

> [Apple] will now allow users to log in to their Apple accounts with hardware-based security keys made by other companies such as Yubico.

Curious to see how they will use it. I don‘t see an immediate way for FIDO/WebAuthN to help in an end-to-end encryption scenario.

I don’t think this is directly related to the E2EE announcement, rather it is an option to replace the current MFA method of receiving codes on your Apple devices.

That makes sense, thank you. It's also mentioned under the corresponding heading on the press release.
