I keep reading guys reply to posts circulating about the above news that “Y’all should be using KeePass” or “why did you even bother using a closed source password manager for your secrets?”
Dudes, have you fucking looked at a screenshot to KeePass recently. Thing looks like an encyclopedia illustration of the opposite of user friendliness, and I can’t even begin to understand how it is supposed to work with your web browsers across all your devices including an iPhone
Get out of your fucking caves and touch grass. Yes people have been using password managers that are not some nightmare fuel 1990s enterprise piece of software ffs
@nileane Market opportunity for someone who is good at building fast and unbtrusive UIs *nudge nudge* :)
@nileane I'm really happy with bitwarden, never been breached, open source, self hostable, I use the instance from libretic.fr with the official clients, it has share password features, TOTP, etc.
@lou_de_sel yeah i might try it again but my last two times with it were awful. The extensions were a buggy mess.
@nileane This has big "For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem."
these mfs honestly think everyone is happy running terminal commands and self hosting god know what
@nileane Yeah. But for real, what app can I switch to, if I don’t want to self host.
@nileane I've got an app idea for you... 
Just… why- why are *so* many big tech companies suddenly jumping at the chance to support bigoted organisations?
Like… why specifically fund Omarchy? *It’s literally open-source and fork-able. If you so happen to believe in the design philosophy of Omarchy so much why not just financially support a replica of it made by actually good human beings?* ***Why go out of your way to tell the world you think DHH is a chill guy?***
@nileane You could try ChiPass when it's ready! https://codeberg.org/ChiPass/ChiPass I am waiting to switch over from KeePassXC.
@quaff I need a password manager that easily syncs across devices
@nileane true. keepassxc alone doesn't include syncing. You can pair it with syncthing or a storage service like iCloud/Gdrive/Dropbox. Just stick your password db there, and syncing should be seamless. But I hear ya, not quite as easy as Bitwarden.
@nileane paper will also find a way to support fascism at this rate
@nileane would Bitwarden be a good alternative, or are they also untangled into nasty stuff as well? 😩
@deanatoire no idea
but also I've used Bitwarden and it fucking sucked. A buggy and ugly mess all around, and looking at screenshots now it seems it hasn't evolved much.
