On my iMac I used TouchID for logging in to many sites in firefox as a second factor.
The same login now just needs to click on OK and I am in, because I am already logged in to my Mac mini where I haven't a TouchID Keyboard connected.
In Safari I am even just in without doing anything.
I can also choose another login by password and One-Time-Password.
I don't really undestand this. Normally TouchID is handled like maybe a YubiKey what I also have. And now just being logged in to my Mac (and iCloud) is enough?
This mainly happens on YouTube. I don't know another website at the moment. Even if all browser data was cleared in each browser. I only need my Google-Account address an am in with a click in Firefox or doing nothing in Safari.
This "Continue" button is all Firefox needs if TouchID is not connected. And Safari doesn't even display this.
