Who specifically is in charge of the algorithm at Twitter? Keep in mind the recent foreign interest financing and editorial changes. How are we certain they have our best American Interests™ at heart?
I'm not trying to play the whatabout card, I'm trying to understand how we would legally articulate what TikTok has done to justify banning by congressional decree. The senate bill [1] doesn't appear to have any measurements or values or clarifications, it's just a few paltry pages that never specify what line TikTok crossed. The only argument I'm hearing is China=Bad.
And who knows, maybe China is nefariously manipulating the TikTok algorithm, but for the US government to step in and say "these ideas are too dangerous, you can not access them," seems like the cure is as bad as the disease. It's using blatant authoritarianism to try to stop the spread of potential authoritarianism.
Just use keepassxc and be master of your keys. You have to move forward. Every 6 months I hear about a breach at lastpass. I assumed only clueless normies were left on it, but I guess their efforts to blockade data exports were effective.
The KeePassXC browser extension doesn't have exactly stellar reviews. As for KeePassXC itself, I'm a little hesitant to use something that makes the UX so painful I have to copy the usernames and passwords.
That said, switching from LastPass to Bitwarden seems a little pointless: yes Bitwarden is a younger company and perhaps hasn't managed to mess up their product yet, but knowing life it's just a matter of time and then I'm at a worse place than where I've started.

I'm in the same boat exactly. Some people are saying they're more productive with it but all I can ask is 'howwww!?'
What's odd is that I'm noticing almost every single report of it being useful is from someone who is anti code licenses. Or rather, not that they're philosophically opposed, but they disregard licenses altogether because it benefits them and they can't be stopped. I've seen so few reports of usefulness coupled with legal or moral skepticism.
I very much assert that the legal, economic, and social context in which a programmer operates has a great impact on what the programmer produces.
We established the licenses we have for good reasons. Licenses alter all of the above variables. We are not simply code production machines. We make code for reasons.
You are free to view yourself as a code production machine, where what you produce is independent of the situation before and after you make anything, but many of us would like to take ownership and action on the legal, economic, and social planes with our work.
