Does password managers on linux desktop support autofill?

[-] somenonewho@feddit.org 3 points 3 days ago

Depends on what your using/how its set up.

GNOMEs native password manager "Passwords and Keys" has the opportunity to store the Browsers Keyring. So if you store passwords in Firefox/Chrome they get stored in Passwords and Keys (and then auto gilled in the browser).

KeePassXC has a Browser plugin, as long a your password databases is unlocked it will autofill inside the Browser.

Its Linux, so there is not one solution and it won't simply work across all apps.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
