I’m slightly biased here, but I think you shouldn’t distinguish non-techies from yourself. Mostly because you’re secure only if they are secure, and in addition you can learn a lot about their issues if you’re using the same products.
Can I ask you what are you using, if anything, and why you’re not ok recommending that? (I’m genuinely interested, I’m working on a pass manager that’s born in a very tech niche and we’re expanding to less tech people.)
- trollsund 9y agoThe reason I distinguish non-techies from myself is that while I know my way around a command line, can compile stuff, debug to some extent etc, they/she can't. The same goes for my parents, and hers, as well as our siblings, uncles, aunties cousins etc. So while I may be ok using some application that requires some configuration and setup, the rest aren't. Currently I'm not using anything, so it will be a case of eating my own dogfood(so to say). Whatever I'll recommend is the one I'll be using. As to why I'm not using anything - eh, a combination of laziness and faith in my own password rule.
