1Password faced immediate backlash from customers this week over a $300,000 pledge in support of a Linux distro created by David Heinemeier Hansson, who has regularly published overtly racist blog posts that include comments calling for deportation of ethnic minorities in Europe. The popular password manager is now a “distinguished corporate patron” of Omacom, the nonprofit foundation that oversees a popular Linux distribution known as Omarchy.

        Is that a FOSS thing? Never done that before. Are there decent guides for getting it set up?

        KeePass honestly sucks for the most part. I love local vault and hope something better comes along, but KeePass UI constantly gives me issues. I’ve tried KeePassXC and that is what I use still, but being limited to opening a single entry at a time. Additional properties are a pain. It’s author not even understanding the need for using the desktop session for the CLI (requires passing password via the terminal to or having separate key file). KeeShare not working on Android. So many things that Bitwarden/Vaultwarden solves much better and quicker. Sad that Bitwarden/Vaultwarden didn’t make a local SQLite client that doesn’t rely on a server.
