Brain-based management is getting too exhausting, and isn’t even fully possible with a larger quantity of online accounts.

  • That’s my reason for wanting to switch to a password manager. Everything gets some long random string that would be insane to type anyway. Or using passkeys, if supported, though I’ll have to research how that works.

    My biggest problem is backups. I like the method of Aegis authenticator. It just stores some number of past (encrypted) databases. Each change is a new file. This way rsync takes care of both backups and version control. If I accidentally rsync a corrupted file, it doesn’t matter much. And I can verify them with Rhash, just like all files that don’t change (like photos).
