Proton Pass open source password manager is now available on F-Droid : opensource

[–] Fake4000 130 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Proton is great but I do feel wary from putting all my eggs in one basket again.

[–] [email protected] 91 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Same, staying with bitwarden for now

[–] [email protected] 41 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Bitwarden also has better features for now like more solid URL matching (handy if you have a bunch of services on subdomains of the same domain name).

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Hey what type of URL matching do you use for achieving this? BW suggest me all the entries for a domain and doesn't differentiate sub domains.

[–] mholiv 7 points 8 months ago

You have to set each entry under the same domain to to match against “host” and you’re set.

[–] qaz 5 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

I use "Host" matching to only target specific subdomains.

Same, staying with keepass for forever

[–] fluckx 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Same. Although the simplelogin integration seems nice.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago

I discovered not too long ago that Bitwarden has the same integration! https://bitwarden.com/blog/add-privacy-and-security-using-email-aliases-with-bitwarden/

You need to configure it on each device though, and you need to generate an API key first.

I was just about to write this... Proton is cool, but I only use mail from them. All my other services are independent from each other, and soon I will be self hosting most of them.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

I'm switching from privatevpn to protonvpn just for the port forwarding with wireguard within a terminal, no stupid GUI app. Quite pleased with the service, they do VPN well.

The backend is proprietary. Avoid.

[–] warmaster 9 points 8 months ago (5 children)

As all things Proton.

[–] hswolf 6 points 8 months ago

I use their mail system, and it's pretty good ngl

Just give me a Linux client for proton drive please. I'm tired of manually uploading/downloading files 😐

[–] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago (5 children)

Yeeeeees. If you're orienting your company as the privacy-alternative it'd be great to emphasize support for the main privacy-oriented OS. I get that developers don't grow on trees, but this seems like a pretty crucial feature that should be prioritized.

I mean, I recently switched to Proton knowing what I was getting into, but I'd really like to see this happen soon.

I'll still stick with bitwarden, but if I were to introduce someone very tech illiterate, I would probably recommend proton

[–] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (9 children)

I'm tech illiterate and been using Bitwarden for 3 years (premium), and honestly it doesn't work very well on Android. Every time I need to enter a password, it's completely hit-or-miss with Bitwarden. Half of the time it doesn't even pop up. I'm using Xiaomi phone and tablet with stock rom (global version).

Should I switch to Proton?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Before switching you should maybe read this and wait for the native app : https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitwarden/comments/1b32bbz/going_native_the_future_of_the_bitwarden_mobile/

I have the same issue with Keepass2Android. I think the issue is with Android itself rather than the password app.

Sometimes you have to long press on the password box and bitwarden might appear or a little "autofill" option may appear along in the 3 vertical dots pop up. Most of the time, Bitwarden auto pops up for me.

I feel like if you're already using Bitwarden and you're talking to us on Lemmy, you're not tech illiterate.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (2 children)

Try the free version and switch to premium if you like it better than bitwarden.

I'll take KeepassXC and KeepassDX + SyncThing, just works and I don't have to ever rely on someone else for my most sensitive data.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago (4 children)

This. At least until i find a better solution than syncthing. But keepass(xc) all the way.

How does it compare to vaultwarden/bitwarden?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

When it launched the apps were more modern than bitwarden. If bitwarden hasn't improved since, then it's still the same

[–] asbestos 15 points 8 months ago (11 children)

Bitwarden’s interface hasn’t changed a bit and it’s a pity

Whats wrong with it?

Weren't they planning to change it from Microsoft's Android UI, it's just taking a while, as they have to rebuilt it from scratch? I thought I saw something about that.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago

Correct, they announced it two months ago: https://www.androidpolice.com/bitwarden-app-about-prettier/

[–] [email protected] 15 points 8 months ago (2 children)

There is nothing wrong with it. Why people always want things to be changing? What really important feature are you missing?

[–] VelociCatTurd 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

And what better person to answer that question than Mr. Bitwarden himself:

For me keepassxc is a dramatic improvement over a centralised service.

Neat, I'm personally gonna keep with KeepassDX, but it's good knowing that there's some more variety popping up in the mobile market.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket

[–] Evotech 7 points 8 months ago

Very much agree

I use protonmail and very happy with that, so much so I pay for it.

But I would not place my mail and all my secrets in the same spot.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago (8 children)

for the love of god use a free open source app like keepass, this is a untrustworthy company

[–] Helkriz 9 points 8 months ago

I've been using Keepass like more than 5 years. And its perfect.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (4 children)

Which F-Droid client is that?
