Edit: I made a mistake, I meant to add Mailfence instead of Fastmail, but forgot to update both the icon and text
Hey everyone, here's a follow up to my previous post, I tried to summarize all your suggestions and these are the options I have for the main Proton products I've been using.
I removed Bitwarden based on your feedback (basically they're enshittifying).
I'm not including Tuta, because I dislike their UX/UI, also they seem to not apply their LLM policy to their own devs.
I'm not including Mullvlad, because of one of the founder's donation to a far right political party in Sweden, said founder has a blog post to justify this, which links to another blog post where he claims to be a libertarian anarchist which is just another word for Ancaps which is a dealbreaker for me.
A lot of people recommended using one's own domain for email stuff, I forgot to mention I do have a custom domain, which will make migrating a lot easier indeed. Just need to update my accounts credentials.
Let me know what you think!
Just a question, is there anything wrong with just KeePass?
KeePass is proprietary. KeePassXC is open source. I have experience with both and I find XC much better in many ways.
Thanks. I'm so used to KeePass that I just can't get used to XC. I don't like keeping the database open. I'm OK with XC on laptop with fingerprint reader, but on desktop, it just feels unwieldy. Also, I like to manually synchronize files between devices, because then they act as backup. And I can't run syncthing at work.
But in that regard KeePass and XC work the same? Both just use the DB and lock if want them to lock...
I guess? Somehow i missed the autotype in XC before, maybe? I just checked it, switched to comapst mode and briefly tested and other than synchronisation of 2 databases, it ses to work mostly as I want to (better in some ways, maybe, more testing needed). And there's Merge from database, which by the sound of it might do the synchronisation the way I want to. I will test it more! It looks like it might work for me too. Thank you!
No, but you need to backup/sync it yourself
I meant non-XC KeePass. You have to back up XC manually as well. But I think I saw someone saying something bad about KeePass without XC or DX and I'm curious now.
KeePass is made with Windows in mind, so it might not have come across OP's radar if they don't use Windows.
I've tried running the OG KeePass on Linux but it's not nice sadly... Prefer the UI much more then KeepassCX
