[1] https://www.fastcompany.com/91542655/bitwarden-scrubs-always-free-and-inclusion-values-from-its-website-as-longtime-execs-step-down
[2] "A user you’ve blocked has previously contributed to this repository" (Claude)

[4] https://1password.social/@1password/116569353856438624
[5] Generally speaking about the company and also: "a user you’ve blocked has previously contributed to this repository" (Claude) in Proton Pass Github.

@cadusilva (sigh)

[tommi@pan.rent]

@cadusilva What’s up with Vaultwarden?

[cadusilva@bolha.one]

@tommi I think they're using Claude because there's a warning saying that "a user you’ve blocked has previously contributed to this repository".

[tommi@pan.rent]

@cadusilva oh no

[nonnom@organica.social]

@cadusilva is there any other option slightly "ok"?

[cadusilva@bolha.one]

@nonnom something shell-based, I guess? Not very user-friendly. So I guess we'll have to deal with it. I'll keep using Vaultwarden *sigh*

[ramonfincken@mastodon.social]

@cadusilva any reference to why?

[hbispo@organica.social]

@cadusilva I'm keeping an eye on https://codeberg.org/ChiPass/ChiPass and might switch to it

[lnsartwrk@organica.social]

@cadusilva vamos ter que usar só a caderneta pra administrar senhas agora

@cadusilva Can you maybe reply to your own message with some receipts? I want to believe you, but I don’t want to believe so badly that I’m gonna embark on 5 research trips.

[cadusilva@bolha.one]

@paco done, edited the post with some references.

[paco@infosec.exchange]

@cadusilva Super! Thank you so much!

I’m running 2 of the 5 and my mom uses another. (93 year old mom using a password wallet at all is a major victory)

[alienghic@timeloop.cafe]

@tommi @cadusilva

On github if you block claude you'll get that warning "A user you've blocked has contributed to this repository"

[amlor@fux.am]

@cadusilva I discovered AliasVault today, seems good so far

[cadusilva@bolha.one]

@amlor there's also ChiPass, a KeePassXC fork from the pre-slop code https://codeberg.org/ChiPass/ChiPass

[navi@social.vlhl.dev]

@cadusilva using pass[1] just because they can't take gpg and git away (or i'd have way bigger problems)

1: https://www.passwordstore.org/

[amlor@fux.am]

@cadusilva yeah I check it out too, but it looks pretty raw for now

[brettm@swarm.coiloptic.org]

@cadusilva@bolha.one moral of the story is never use a password manager imo

[mccovican@infosec.exchange]

@cadusilva Given that NordPass seem to have just deep-sixed all their public GitHub repos (aside from the autofill scripts), I'd say that's probably not a good sign for them either.
