Absolutely, yes. It's hard for me to see federating with corporations such as Facebook Meta much differently than doing so with an instance run by spammers.

Perhaps a bit more technically involved for some tastes, but here's my setup –

I've used pass for the past few years, a command line based password manager that stores GPG encrypted passwords as text files in a git repository. I use it for more than passwords, so it's more like a passwords-and-other-sensitive-secrets manager.

There's no defined structure, that is left to the user to figure out, but the basic command to get a password and copy it to the clipboard simply grabs the first line of the file, which is where I insert the actual password. There's other info in there too, usernames, challenge questions, etc.

I push the git repo to gitlab, transported via ssh. On my phone, I use a client for Android called Android Password Store, which pulls from the git repository and has an easy interface for adding, editing, and accessing the passwords.

It costs nothing, stays backed up, and works pretty well for my purposes. Despite that, I was looking around to see if KeePass would be a better solution for me in any way, and found this cool thing, passhole, which provides KeePass with a CLI interface similar to that of pass, which is a big part of my attraction to it.

Haha, SimTower for classic MacOS. I've always wanted to put together a clone of it.

My dad insisted on using CARDFILE.EXE from Windows 3.1 up until he switched to a MacBook in 2010 or so. I still have the data file somewhere.

Gotta admit tho, it was one of the most useful applications that came with a PC back in the late 80s/early 90s. My folks put everything into that thing. They probably had about 350 cards!

Well, here's a thing I didn't know about before that might be useful to you – a tool to extract the dated from the *.crd files.

Hey there.

I'm pretty interested in Nix, but I can't see myself switching away from Gentoo really. I know it pretty much inside out and I can have the level of control over my system that my OCD needs. Over > 20 years, I've always come back to Gentoo after excursions elsewhere.

With that out of the way, I'll say that exploring Nix is something I want to do eventually and is firmly pinned to my list of distros to try out. I guess the main thing that turns me off is the domain-specific language that's used throughout. A similar and oft-compared system which also interests me is Guix, and it probably falls a little ahead of Nix on my to-try-out list owing to its use of Guile (like Scheme) for the same purpose.

Works well on my OS9 VM!

Man, this might even motivate me to stop putting it off and just jump on the train.

Your point about the possibility of unevenly sized text and line breaks mucking up the whole layout makes sense. I wasn't thinking about that. I think a better-than-nothing solution would include the stripping out of markdown formatting that alters the rendering in, image references (I'm new here, are images even allowed in post body content?), and converting the markdown URLs as you mentioned.

Another thing that could influence what people put in there would be some example text in maybe some helpful guidelines alongside the post form.

Looks like at least I've got a few more reasons to finally sit down and pick up a little Rust.

Sorry, I was offline for a day or two, thank you!

Great idea. I'd be happy to help mod a termux community.

Whoops, I'm not sure if you meant that for me or the OP, UrNightmaree. Either way, I'm a huge Termux fan and am happy to help make it a cool and welcoming place.

That would be awesome, thanks. I just finished writing out a welcome post for the community, which I will submit momentarily.

Posted. Let me know if anything looks weird or a link doesn't work. I'm pretty nitpicky about things reading correctly, so there will likely be edits. Thanks.

Cool! I use termux every day and I'm excited. I'll get in touch with the termux devs and see if we can maaaybe get a link on their Github page, and do word-spreading.
