Yes, it is.  ssh-keygen -Y is much much simpler to use than gpg.
Verifying SSH signatures does not expose Fedora servers to DoS
attacks the way verifying PGP signatures would.  And the same
key can be used for both SSH and for signing, without creating
security risks.  Furthermore, OpenSSH supports using any FIDO2
token for key storage, not just more expensive PGP-capable
tokens.
