I want this but as a Linux distribution. I don't think I'm asking for much here. I am just asking for the "open source community" to be to the left of Goldman Sachs

My understanding is that Bitwarden and KeePassXC, the two open source password managers, are *both* using random code generators at this point, which is terrifying as those are the exact tools where a small error could have the largest negative impact, and also tools that once you've committed to using it you can't quickly back out if they enter a code quality decline

@mcc Yeah, KeePassXC going this route really hurt. I'm probably going to migrate back to a text file encrypted with gnupg for basic password management, but I have no idea what I'm going to use for one-time passcodes.

@jcnotwit @mcc I'm using the original KeePass on Linux, even though Mono seems not handle high density displays properly, no way I'll touch XC now it's using LLM coding.

@chopsstephens @jcnotwit @mcc But there are forks of the pre-vibecoded XC now, no need to switch to a whole other program.

@frumble @jcnotwit @mcc that's good to know. I only recently switched to Linux and was using KeePass on Windows before that, so I just stuck with it when Mint gave me KeePass and KeePassXC as options.

@frumble

Which would you recommend for desktop Linux?

@argv_minus_one Mastodon’s search is so notoriously bad (or the usual freaks have already autodeleted their toots), I cannot find the recommendations again. But I guess they will resurface soon.
