I tried it and its pretty cool and polished, but Bitwarden is WAY better in every poseible way.
I agree with you there, KeePassXC is definitely the superior choice.
Is it open source though?
Here you go :)

I’m all for open source alternatives to bitwarden but this is non competitive with a mandatory subscription fee. Bitwarden is completely free for most users.
I thought the same thing but it actually does have a limited free plan. Seems like, similar to BW, it restricts 2FA behind the pass, but also with the pass you get unlimited hide-my-email aliases, multiple vaults to organize in (I don’t know what this means), and eventually autofill credit cards.
This is quite a bit more expensive than BW’s paid plan though. Not sure what all differences it has to BW otherwise.
Didnt read anything about a security key or even a keyfile (poor mans security key w/o phishing protection). Im assuming its protected by totp which is fine but I do kinda prefer a security key
I think you log in with your proton account, that supports yubikeys for 2fa
This company is a love hate relationship.
They make good products, but they promise release dates over and over again, and miss them by 2+ years.
They also fuck people over by releasing apps to only their visionary memberships. Like okay. Guess my $150/month doesn’t mean shit because I’m not visionary? Glad to wait 8 months for the beta to trickle down to me…
Still waiting on the ProtonMail Android app to be remade, and ProtonDrive Windows desktop app.
Edit: wait, I need a business plan to use this? What?
Ya, I’ll stick to my $1.30 CAD per month for BitWarden over the $6 for this.
How.come u.r paying 150$/month? Havent you ment 150$/year?
The protonmail app seams good to me on Android?
It’s missing so much that iOS has. They’ve said they are releasing a rewritten app, but keep delaying it.
For example, there’s no threaded email support on Android.
https://proton.me/blog/2022-roadmap
As discussed in the January update, Android will require more work as we are rewriting more of the application, with a big focus on performance and stability. This means some Android features you have requested for Mail are not in our immediate scope for delivery. In particular, conversation view (also known as threading view) won’t make it into the first version of the new Android app, but we hope to deliver it soon after release.
True, no threads. I didn’t notice cause for threads I usually used the website on my laptop
Thought this was about Valve’s Wine fork and was very confused 😅
@protonmail Proton claims to be a privacy oriented company and yet their email app doesn’t show push notifications without Google Play Services means you will either have to use Google Play Services or live without push notifications (if you are using a degoogled phone). If Tutanota app could show push notifications without Google Play Services, it is definitely possible. What a joke!!

Goodbye LastPass (I’m aware I should have migrated already but I was holding out for this)
Oh my god you’re still on Lastpass? RUN!
Not as of last night!
The most important step a man can take. It’s not the first one, is it? It’s the next one. Always the next step.
If they’re going to try to compete with Bitwarden they could at least offer 2FA for free instead of paywalling it as a feature. It was disappointing when Bitwarden did it, and it’s even more disappointing with Proton - it’s like failing an open book test.
You shouldn’t be using that feature anyway. Keeping your passwords and 2FA in the same place means you only have 1FA.
It’s mainly a difference in threat model. 2FA within a password manager is still 2FA for concerns of a website login being hacked by remote adversaries, which is the most important problem to solve.
If you use 2FA within your password manager, you should still lock that outer-most password vault with 2FA from a separate device (like you said), which solves your password vault being hacked by remote adversaries. Optionally, you can then use aggressive idle-locking of your vault on your personal devices, in case they’re stolen physically.
Tempting. I’ve been using Bitwarden for awhile now and it’s been fantastic. I am not sure I need to switch.
Same. I’ll continue to use Bitwarden. I think it’s good to have other open-source options out there, though. Proton Pass is definitely prettier and will appeal to some people that care more about the aesthetics.
continues to use Bitwarden also.
I was in the beta of it, didn’t use it though as i am on 1password.
For me it’s important that i have a desktop application. I don’t want to open my fcking webbrowser anytime i need a password or want to edit some credentials.
And they simply don’t have one. I gave it as feedback and they say it’s on their roadmap. I said they should take 1passwords desktop as inspiration as it works so fcking good; I really love that floating quick search that you can summon with a keycombo.
I wish that proton would focus on the depth of their present stack, as opposed to breadth.
I’ve been begging for rclone support for proton drive for a long time now… without it, I basically have 1tb sitting there useless.
Same thoughts here. ProtonVPN under Linux is very poorly supported.
Just out of curiosity. How is it poorly supported?
I haven’t used it much yet, but the times i have it seems to have worked fine.IIRC it’s missing a number of features that ProtonVPN Windows has. I last checked into it a year or so ago and the attitude was that it was a very shoddy application missing most features. I found this github issue expressing this sentiment but I don’t see much in terms of specifics.
I don’t have a paid ProtonVPN but I just downloaded the VPN on a free account and it only has 3 options on it:
- Secure Core on/off (only select servers in privacy-friendly countries)
- Netshield (DNS adblocking etc)
- Killswitch
I use Mullvad so I opened that up alongside and will list out the features it has on its Linux client in comparison:
- DNS adblocking
- Killswitch
- Wireguard
- Auto-launch on pc start
- Split tunnel support
- Local network split tunnel allowance
- Disable ipv6
- Custom DNS server
- Protocol obfuscation (UDP-over-TCP)
- Multihop servers
- Quantum-resistant tunnel (for Wireguard initialization)
The main ones for me are split tunneling and Wireguard. Using a VPN that doesn’t support these is a non-starter for me, unfortunately. If any of this is different when you have a paid ProtonVPN account let me know - I don’t have very much experience with it.
TBH, if protonVPN under linux was any good I would probably have Proton Unlimited. I can’t justify paying for Mullvad and Proton Unlimited, so I DIY my own collection of services to match functionality for about the same price.
I just had a look and as far as i can tell ProtonVPN suppports everything Mullvad does. On windows…
On linux you get fuckall settings. No split tunneling, no dns, no wireguard, no nothing. There seems to be no parity between linux and windows. That is less than poorly supported, it’s atrocious tbh.
On windows you even get a fancy map with triangles that shows server locations that can be used to quick connect.
And this is with an unlimited account so i don’t believe it’s an account level limit.Edit: I just looked and to be fair they do state in the plan features that Split tunneling is only available on Android and Windows
Missing lots of features. Proton does not prioritize Linux at all
It’s horrible. I’ve had to hack together a shell script to switch between countries using a bunch of openvpn config files. The official app broke my Linux Mint network setup.
