My first few takeaways from #ProtonPass
1. I see they don't have an account for it yet on #Mastodon, and nothing is listened on their @protonprivacy @protonmail @protondrive accounts.
2. It has email aliases. Allowjng for another level of security and #privacy to use alias instead of your actual email address.
3. Native #2FA. This is an interesting one because if you are already using a 2FA service and you use it for your #Proton account, you can't switch services. Because then you could possibly lock yourself out of your account with a sort-of self-locking loop if your device gets stolen.
4. They have native support for notes. One of my nit-picks with #Bitwarden is that notes are always visible. Many of my high security passwords and their fields are always hidden and protected by my master password, but notes can not be protected in this way, and they are always in clear text on my screen. Thus, someone can see them over your shoulder or access them if your laptop is unattended.
One thing that will be difficult for me to give up is the #Bitwarden desktopapp.
If you use your #passwordmanager for other services, like SSH connections and terminal applications, it is quite frustrating to always have a browser window open. This is where I just love the dedicated application that always sits on my dock.
Just like #ProtonDrive, #ProtonPass needs a dedicated app for #Windows, #Linux and #Mac for it to even be considered a competitor in the space.
@Stark9837 @fbievan used it before. was great, but i felt like i had a lot more control when i went to Vaultwarden (you can check them out here: https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden).
