OpenPGP Smartcard recommendations

[Anthony Papillion]

Thanks for the reply. I have an older Yubikey Classic and still use it
to this day for a lot of things. It's awesome. I'll definitely take a
look at the newer keys you mentioned and see if they are something I
could use. Thanks for the recommendation.

I might also join the FSFE. Does it matter that I am not in Europe (I'm
in the USA)?

Thanks,
Anthony
