4 hours agoI too recommend KeepassXC, works even on android with KeepassDX. I use syncthing to sync between devices (work, personal and android)

From what I scanned, there was no reason given on why they only attacked cloud based providers.
My guess is that these are paid ones and thus have a ‘market share’, easier to attack etc.
If you attack a ‘keepass’ password the attack vector is more crypto / memory based as far as my limited knowledge goes and not some funky inbetween attack.
Also, if you attack a cloud base provides, you will most likely have multiple victims per breach / exploit, whilst offline are targeted and thus not so interesting in most cases unless we’re talking about a person of interest
For people interested there were 3 cloud based password managers tested and this is what they found
The researchers demonstrated 12 attacks on Bitwarden, 7 on LastPass and 6 on Dashlane.
That’s my take as well
Not sure about reddit but it was posted on Hackernews too.
The problem is finding a good alternative immediately. I don’t mind to hop and check out multiple services, but some of my friends wants to just install one thing and be done.
My checklist is not too much either, but for some reason video calling is not something included with the lot of them.
Also there are three clues but it just explains the process a bit? Very strange article indeed.
Hmm, I don’t think I’ve optimized it either to be fair. I wanted to use my phone as a ‘bridge in between’ but that means it uses battery since it ‘checks’ whats online.
In reality my phone is usually on demand and since I work from home, my work device is usually still turned on when I turn on my ‘good computer’ with fun projects.
One thing that I find useful is the backup / version control settings, I’ve set it up that there is a version control if it overwrites things so that when conflicts happen (eg a sync didn’t happen and I changed both keepass databases) I can quickly ‘merge’ them or sync them up manually.
I’ve also heard that syncthing isn’t available on android anymore but a fork (that is somewhat vetted, iirc) exist.
If you can run applications on your NAS & connect to it from anywhere, it could be used as a type of ‘master’ server that keeps everything in sync that is always online.
