 Hi!

 Unfortunately Firefox on Mac does not support Touch ID, this is not
 something that WordPress.org can support as it's a browser/OS limitation,
 rather than a code issue.

 Only Chrome and Safari can currently use Apple Touch ID.

 For WordPress.org 2FA with Mac + Firefox, you should either use a) Auth
 App (which could be 1Password or other such managers that support TOTP, if
 you don't wish to use a mobile app) or b) A supported hardware key (Such
 as a yubikey, google titan, nitrokey, trustkey, solokeys, or any other
 FIDO2 compatible key) or c) a Recovery/Backup code.

 I'm closing this as `invalid` as there's not actually anything broken here
 from the WordPress.org perspective, although the user-experience is
 definitely not ideal.

 If you have an idea of how to communicate this kind of scenario to a user,
 please do comment with a suggestion, we'll see it and if appropriate re-
 open/implement it.
