Because it’s encrypted and still secure, and it turns out I need my passwords on my pocket computer as much as I need my passwords on my desktop.

Have you tried running that on your Android?

If someone is going through that trouble the same is true of your communication. Someone could record comms from you to bitwarden, watch as the app does it’s database sync, and record it for later decryption. But the same is true of your KeePass unless you only sync by hand on a private network.

Bitwarden doesn’t have access to your data. This isn’t an issue. This is just jingoism because the best way to fight an absurd nationalist asshole is more nationalism

The tldr is if you’re on windows, use keepass base. It has every feature anyone would want and plugins for the rest. It’s basically perfect.

If you’re not on windows, keepass xc is great, but Id think of it as like keepass’ most used features, but less customizable and less absurdly complete.

Android has several the one I use is from fdroid and it’s offline-only. Several out there have sync systems, but I use syncthing.

What if you don’t hate yourself?

And who is requiring you to use windows? Previously it was just societal expectations but apparently it’s not that anymore. Who is cracking the whip to force you to use windows?

I have genuinely had realtors say that’s just something you need to buy. It’s so weird. I tried to leave behind a curtain rod at one such place and they said to remove it.

Plenty of people just don’t have the brain capacity to read settings or multitask and that’s fine. If that works for them, good for them.

So by your definition going to the dentist is slavery? After all society expects you to go, and there are terms and conditions.

Gnome user: accepts defaults and never having the ability to change a setting

Gnome user: “consistency is great when you don’t have opinions of your own!”

Hey bud it’s fine some people are capable of multitasking and changing configuration options and some people are content with gnome.

Lxqt?

That’s the beauty of gnome: they don’t give a single fuck if you like it. You can return the favor.

I remember when kde looked like xfce and yeah back then it was buggy. Today it looks like a slightly jank windows 7 but with the giant buttons and curved corners that characterize 2015 software.

Most of the bugs seem to come from Wayland still being vaguely trashy and kde not having fully migrated from xorg

Cosmic is not based on gnome

Cosmic has devs that give a shit about their users.

Comparing freely using a product to slavery is truly the most privileged techbro thing I’ve seen.

Comparing switching from windows to another piece of software to being a refugee is truly the most privileged techbro thing I’ve seen in a long time. Well, since mid January at least.

This can happen.

The flip side is noone uses it. I’ve never worked at any company that allowed even lgpl code to be used. If it has a commercial license we’ll buy it, if not…find another tool.

Lawyers are terrified of gpl and will do anything to avoid going to court over it, including forcing you to rip code out and do a clean room rewrite.

Or on the flip side, they want usage to be pervasive so they win. I mean come on man it’s like “move this file” and “make this directory”.

these applications aren’t rocket science and providing them under a license that people will use outside of the hardcore Linux space is just good marketing.
