What is a website everyone should know about? - lemm.ee

Google.com

Surprising how many people won’t just go search for the answer to their question before asking it online.

This type of question is worth to be posted here, IMO

startpage.com mojeek.com Searx.be

Alternative search engines that respect privacy. 👌

google is becoming more useless by the day

ad riddled spyware

Y’know, sometimes people ask questions on public forums rather than just searching on Google because they want to start a conversation.

Yeah those aren’t the kinds of questions I’m talking about. I’m talking about ones with objective answers that can be easily searched.

Obviously.

Even a question with an objective answer can be elaborated further upon through engagement with an actual person.

Same concept but focused almost exclusively on dev and tech: lobster.rs
Lobsters

A computing-focused community centered around link aggregation and discussion.

Hacker news is good for links, but the comment section can be radioactive with capitalist tech dude bros that think technology and VC funding is the answer to the worlds problems.
is there a site like this but not focused on tech ? I like it but it doesn’t have that much non-tech links

haveibeenpwned.com

To figure out if your email addresses are part of a known breach. Also, start using a password manager (bitwarden.com)

All this does is return a page of memes when is search

and if my Email is part of any kind of breach, is thier something else I should do beside changing my password ?

PS: I do have 2FA activated already

Use a unique password for everything. I recommend bitwarden
So who has the highest score? I’ve got 21 on my OG email and 13 on my one I’ve used a few heads 🤣
30 on my OG and what use to be my primary up until a year ago.
Spoiler alert: Yes. Yes it has.
A good alternative to Bitwarden is KeePass/KeepassXC btw
A good alternative to keepass is a self hosted vaultwarden btw. (compiled from bitwardens opensource code iirc)
Nothing can beat passwords written on paper though
Scissors can.
I was talking about digital espionage, assuming one is not stupid enough to record their offline passwords digitally
So I will write them on a rock, instead.
But paper beats rock
Physical access can. Indentations on the below page can. Fire and moisture can. Someone looking over your shoulder can.

Vaultwarden is not compiled from Bitwarden’s code, it’s a separate project and codebase but designed to be compatible with Bitwarden’s API.

Bitwarden is open source and you can self-host it but IIRC it’s a bit more complex and resource-hungry than Vaultwarden.

They have totally different design goals which is why Bitwarden is more resource-hungry and more complex to deploy. Bitwarden can scale up to companies with hundreds of thousands of employees (it’s what they run on the hosted version, after all) whereas Vaultwarden is designed to be small and light for home use cases where you almost always have <10 users total.
I agree. But I think is much easier for people to use KeePass compared to self hosting Vaultwarden
I agree, I do this and it works great.

I found keepassium for the work phone and I was in love that I could keep a separate db with my OTPs under a password and backed up.

Vanilla keepassium for Android has no camera/QR->OTP input that I know of, one that works like keepassium does and is all compatible down the line.

Do you (or anyone) know of a good combo for droid that gets

  • keepass
  • backup to box/gdoc/etc
  • qr for OTP

In one final package?

Hm i switched from KeePass to Bitwarden because the latter lets me use my passwords on multiple devices and as a Firefox extension that enters my credentials at a shortcut.

Can you elaborate why you think KeePass is better?

I think it’s more flexible. Also, due to the databases just being normal files you can sync them with syncthing between your devices.

In my case I run a NAS at home on which they’re stored so I don’t need to sync them. I just open them directly from the NAS.

I do all of that with Keepass, for what it’s worth.

Is this really that useful though?

I pretty much just assume that I’m getting pwned regularly.

Obviously the password manager advice is very useful.

I use this to cut through the bullshit of Prime Day deals or Black Friday. It shows you the historical price of a product.

Amazon price tracker, Amazon price history charts, price watches, and price drop alerts.

camelcamelcamel: Amazon price tracker, Amazon price history charts, price watches, and price drop alerts.

Crazy how I have a bunch of alerts set up on here, prime day started and I didn’t have a single item drop in price.

Also I believe there is a browser plug-in for this as well to make it even easier to use.

I’ll also come in just to mention the android app “TryCamel”. Being able to conveniently add things when on mobile was a game changer for me.
Same! I find the alerts come at times when there are no holidays or events. Like on a random Tuesday afternoon in the middle of June I get an alert that a game or movie is $20 when it’s been $40-60 the last 6 months. Prime Day comes around and it’s “on sale” for $55.
Keepa.com is also really good

I literally just used this site last week to set up a price alert for a purchase.

Noticed via their chart that the item I wanted to buy (an air purifier) went on sale every few weeks from $340 to $199. I set the alert for $200, and the next day it emailed me saying the price had dropped. Saved me 140 bucks which was awesome.

Works for Amazon.ca links as well.
