It is amazing what a little cooperation between public and private institutions can achieve. It is the only way to login and 2fa to government services and most banks (some legacy systems are still supported by banks) and it works great.
It is incredible there is no system like this for every country, heck it is incredible that there isn't a system like this for the whole EU.
EU is introducing Digital Wallet for this. I hope it will nicer to use than the Finnish version of BankID. Also would be nicer to be less dependent of banks or other private rent-seeking institutions.
It is pretty complicated for the average person to install custom certificates on their OS. I didn't even knew that BankID supported it, pretty much every one uses the app.
