I’ve been trialing Vaultwarden for a while and while I do like the server sync setup and clean web access, the Bitwarden browser plugin is just okay despite being an “enterprise” solution. It misses probably about 20% of websites when creating a new account, forcing you to grab the password from the generator history and make a new entry manually.
KeepassXC is much better in that regard, and it’s almost as good as the default credential handler of Firefox, and it lets you set up a bunch of custom stuff to extend the functionality if you want. Plus it has some neat kbdx options aside from AES256.
Only downside is syncing, which I’m debating how I’ll deal with something better than syncthing on android (protocol is great, android makes it a PITA to have a background process if its not Google spyware).
This makes me so fucking angry. How can a password manager be so bad at storing passwords, it’s like it’s only job. It even is generating the password for you! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
TIL about the generator history
Not super helpful, because every time you open it, it generates a new one, so how do you know which one is the one it generated?
