Due to a retarded accident at work I have reduced arm mobility, and it makes copypasting credentials from keepassXC to the window of whatever I want to log into a bit of a hassle. Is the official browser extension safe to use if I want it to auto-fill my passwords and such?
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/keepassxc-browser/

Doesn't this add more risk or an online component to software that is made to be local?

the browser extension itself seems to be safe because it doesn't store the keys by itself (not that this would be unsafe in any sense of the word)
Instead it uses the desktop app
>>
>>109658466
It should be fine. The official extension is secure. It adds another vector of attack, but it also removes the potential issue of another application reading your password from the clipboard.
>>
>>109658584
keepassxc has autotype though, you don't have to copy to clipboard
>>
>>109658466
I think the bigger question is why you're apparently having to enter credentials so often that it's even an issue. Do other people use your computer?
>>

I can't control my hands using telepathy I'm afraid.

>>109658584
Thanks, it should be fine then.
>>109658625
Somewhat, but mostly logging off is an habit I've developed over the years and I use librewolf which erases all data on exit.

>>109658466
threat model?

Is this a one arm or a both arms type of situation? If it's just one arm, why not get something like an MMO mouse for extra buttons? Razer even has a left-handed version.

is that really necessary
>>
>>109659785
Cookies are the easiest way to track you. You can whitelist websites where you need to use an account and delete everything on exit for the rest.
>>
>>109658466
why not use bitwarden
>>
>>109658466
Keep the keepass database mostly as a backup storage and use the browsers built in password manager.
>>
>>109660028
It's shit now.
>>
>>109660028
Self hosted vaultwarden breaks like once a month, something goes wrong and then you have to spend an hour fixing it, while you're locked out of everything. I'm considering keepass

yes, it's made by the same guys

>>109660028

>Is it safe?
Nigga are you stupid?
>>
>>109664080
you self-host it
>>
>>109663304
just disable updates (also for browser extension)
>>
>>109664102
The browser requests a domain, KeePass searches for it, then pops up and asks you to approve. Pretty reasonable.

>>109658595
Autotype is finicky, doesn't work on some platforms, and I'm paranoid it'll type into the wrong window.

How did you write this post?

I just use vaultwarden.

>>109664578
>>109665049
it's the same but more effort then, why would you do that instead of just using kepassxc
>>
>>109663304
I've been using vaultwarden for at least a year now and it hasn't broken once. I keep it updated.
>>
>>109665055
I just like that Bitwarden has civilized out-of-the-box sync between devices.
>>
>>109665055
I like the apps/extensions, the way it is designed to be online, the sync. Everything works great.
>>
>>109665168
but i dont want to broadcast my passwords online
>>
>>109665231
You don't broadcast them you share them with yourself.
