@taviso had claimed the exact opposite: https://lock.cmpxchg8b.com/passmgrs.html https://lock.cmpxchg8b.com/passmgrs.html
EDIT: Yes, he claimed that for online password managers, not keepass. I thought the argument was about password managers in general.

- busterarm 5mo agoThat's not what that is saying. It's saying don't use an _online_ password manager instead of the browser one. In the very opening they state that simple implementations are great and even lists some. Then the rest of the article dives specifically into online password managers, which are something else.
- sedatk 5mo agoYou're right. Edited my comment.
- WolfeReader 5mo agoBrowser-based password management serves the purpose of locking users into a specific browser; I'd much rather have the freedom to switch browsers at will without the cognitive tax of securely moving all my creds every time I want to switch my main browser.
- sedatk 5mo agoI agree. It's especially problematic when you use different browsers on different devices and operating systems.
