It's that time of year where one reflects on the year that has passed and looks forward to the new one. A lot of people like to set a "theme" for the new year, which is something I've not done before.

But next year, I think I'd like to set a theme of #focus

Focus is something I constantly struggle with, and I really need to step up my game.

So how does one practice focus? What does that even mean? That is what I'm setting out to discover.

LessPass has an "increment" parameter for this. I can see it being a huge pain to remember which sites have which increments, hence the idea of syncing *some* information.
Although if the increment is due to a breach, in theory the app would warn you the password is breached, prompting you to remember your increment.
Determined passwords are definitely not without their flaws.

If you like, you can keep the entire thing offline, either saving odd password profiles locally, or go for a complete no-storage solution and just generate passwords every time (but still have benefits like auto-fill and password breach checks)

LessPass has/had an online database component where you could store password profiles (character restrictions, counter, etc).
Bitwarden logins have custom fields where you can add extra data, which is all (theoretically) encrypted on the Bitwarden server.
Plug A into B, only store profile settings that deviate from the defaults.
Offer self-hosting options or keep profile databases local, like Keepass.

#AppIdea
A password manager with all the security and nice-to-haves of something like Bitwarden (e.g. extra fields, map many urls to one login, mobile app with autofill, check for password breaches, etc)
But the passwords themselves are never actually stored, instead deterministically generated, like lesspass.com

@death.au Another reply, as I think it might be overwriting data instead of appending...

@death.au I wanted to test out a reply, to see what that looks like

Wihout having a play myself, I don't know, but I keep seeing "boost are literally extensions" so maybe the chrome extention APIs are available (and I have seen "global" boosts are a thing). Still, I don't know how that translates to making the extension button do stuff without access to the extension manifest file...

... I should probably just play around with it myself at some point

@Simonscarfe
Oh yeah, that makes sense. Arc doesn't really have traditional "bookmarks".
Is it relatively simple to convert them into boosts? I haven't played with them yet, so not sure how easy it is to make an extension icon/button/etc.
