Besides the password manager (I use Bitwarden) those are strong recommendations. Thanks
Are you happy with bitwarden? Its very tempting ... I'm just concerned about it being in the US, where some agency could "request" data.
Why not just self-host vaultwarden then? Since you seem to already selfhost other managers.
Thats because I was not informed until I read your comment. I honestly didn't know that vaultwarden is what bitwarden self-hosted is called. Thanks. Guess I was ignorant.
I'll give it a try.
Oops, sorry I didn't mean it to sound condescending, my bad.
Yeah, it's pretty easy to run, I just use their docker image.
Backup and how to secure it on the other hand is a frequent discussion on Lemny selfhosted or r/selfhosted
Also see Selfh.st for other OSS apps alternatives.
We have to bring those selfhosted guys over to db0 somehow :D
Goes hand in hand with the "Yarrisms"
Unless your master password is stolen or it is just "123" it is literally impossible to crack your vault. I've been happy with BW (even if it is in the US I'm not American so they can't even use it against me)
PS there is a European server at bitwarden.eu :)
