Smart.
What products will work on Linux/gnu, Linux/Android, and Windows 10?
Is the integration to the O/S, the window manager, or the web
browser? Looking for something that will work transparently across
all the mentioned platforms, and possibly also Mac/iPhone.
I get very nervous about a password manager that aims to transparently
let me in everywhere it can. Seems a very hard thing to get right. Bugs
lurk in hard code. And bugs in a password manager are potentially
catastrophic. I prefer being a manual middleman for every password
entry; I prefer a very-offline password manager.
The result is the passwords I use most frequently I remember, so I just
type them. The ones I use infrequently are infrequent, so I don't mind
looking them up.
Remember: All software has bugs, password managers are not somehow immune.
-kb, the Kent who also expires his sudo password immediately, to make
quietly tailgating in behind his use of sudo a lot harder...so he's like
that.
