pass: the standard unix password manager

By trying to make things simple, this ends up making it more complicated and convoluted than anything

Alright does anyone have opinions on Nextcloud Passwords? There's apps for it and it would sync to my Nextcloud.

I hate this. Bitwarden has been a good app.

Bitwarden has been a good app.

And it still is. There's no reason to stop using Bitwarden, and I will continue my plans to switch to Vaultwarden.

As @Krzd@lemmy.world said, it's a packaging bug, not an actual change in license. If you read the article, it says as much in the update.

Keepass. Keep it simple.

If you want to roll your own with keepass that's fine, but most people will want a more comprehensive solution.

I use to always recommend bitwarden to people. Now i feel like an idiot for doing so with them switching up. Ill be making the effort to move to keepassxc soon and host it myself.

I'm going to keep using Bitwarden because KeepassXC sucks, but not as a paying user. Once this package inclusion is removed, if it is removed, i'll pay again.

Sooo, where's ProtonPass at? They're open source and non-profit, right?

[-] AsudoxDev@programming.dev 12 points 1 month ago

The server is not open source and I wouldn't trust a business that is not just working on password managers.

[-] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Its worth noting I don't think they're actually a company anymore, I think they're now a non-profit (I may be mistaken, but that's my present understanding)
