Here again is my tutorial on
how to install the excellent local-only password manager KeePassXC (with a YubiKey)!

This is what I use to store all my passwords! 🔑🔑🔑🔑🔑  

My only disappointment is not starting to use it earlier. Keep your passwords safe! For free! And offline!

@Em0nM4stodon Excellent. Everyone, which NFC based key do you use for unlocking, if any?

@carstenraddatz KeePassXC is for desktop-only, so less likely to require NFC, but I do use a YubiKey 5 NFC: https://www.yubico.com/ca/product/yubikey-5-nfc/
USB-A YubiKey 5 NFC Two Factor Security Key | Yubico

Protect yourself from account takeovers with the efficient, multi-protocol YubiKey 5 NFC. Go passwordless with our NFC capable security key.

@Em0nM4stodon Erm, yes, my bad. I meant to ask about KeePassDX for mobile. Will that unlock via NFC?

@carstenraddatz I unfortunately am not familiar with KeePassDX on mobile.

@Em0nM4stodon Thank you for helping me notice up my confusion.

@carstenraddatz Very happy to clarify this if it helped! It is indeed very confusing with all the KeePass compatible applications using such similar names. Completely understandable! Sorry I can't help with KeePassDX.
