oh, I had to find that with quoted twitter search - didn’t see it linked on javi’s post

looks like you're in the ballpark, sept 14

helpful post, ty - I’ve also been halfheartedly looking at bitwarden (possibly with vaultwarden server) and I haven’t pulled the trigger yet because extra yaks. so knowing some of the other happenings there… oof

(including pulling the trigger I’d want to have it hosted on an island instead of directly exposed, which adds other requirements and steps)

the only other option is (gnu) pass, but it sucks pretty majorly ito clients. it really isn’t a good time in password managers :|

that keepassxc thing continues going wild. there’s an account on fedi that’s been stubbornly defending their choice the last few hours. see here

to the latter part of my comment: both my own and also other peoples’ criticisms just turn into a dead avenue. the applicable poster just ghosts that subthread while happily posting elsewhere

guess there’s no desire to do better!

what a baffling way to describe it

this is a recurring problem with them/their posts; if you look across history you can see a continual pattern of “de jour grumpword a la $somecommunity” leak forth

I have on occasion asked them to try to make better posts. they don’t seem to give a fuck to do so tho

Given that this is the person who composed the ode with the hook “we appreciate power”, let’s just say that my take re their opinion in this post is rather minimal

me, a ZAian, while waking up (with only ~6h after a 2.5 day awake stretch): "huh? perfectly normal for them to drive on the left side? .....oh wait, right. elsewhere."

wasn't common crawl the one that pulled a similar trick to goog's "if you label a thing as $x we won't include you"[0]? I could swear I heard their name in association with some derpshit intake management stuff above and beyond the typical fundamental "free/open scraper set" problems

[0] - a tactic google first pulled with Streetview cars pulling in a pile of wifi beacons and tying it to location - "if you don't want it just rename your AP to '{prefix} - {apname}'". a reply that was just dumb and aggravating but also it fucking sucks that basically no standards have taken this problem to heart in the ~15y hence

the exasperation I so often express is not for nothing :|
