TOTP tokens on my wrist with the smartest dumb watch
I use https://github.com/pcarrier/gauth
It relies on file permissions so is not exactly robustly secure (no idea about RAM vulnerabilities etc).
As per the author, I consider my laptop the fundamental point of vulnerability. If someone else gets access to it, I'll know and I'll hit the metaphorical panic button :)
- Ask HN: Does anyone else think this 2FA everywhere is getting out of hand?

Ask HN: Why is today's Internet experience so user hostile?
I was able to take a screenshot of GAuth backups on iPhone using the button hotkeys(IE: Power+Volume up). I setup a container that runs a go version of GAuth and used a python script to decrypt the (decrypted QR code) backup keys. Then I backed up the encrypted keyfile to offline disk, encrypted the container backup and deleted it from the hypervisor.

No, thank you, especially if Google is going to be the gatekeeper.

Safari 18 will automatically transition users to passkeys [video]
Here's a great github discussion about passkey plaintext exports.
Apparently, the FIDO alliance is considering adding an attestation feature that would allow websites to block various passkey implementations:
https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/10407#iss...
e.g., they could block ones that allow exports, or they could block ones that are FOSS. To their credit, it looks like Apple's throwing their weight around to prevent such blocking from being technically possible.
The more I hear about this standard, the more concerned I become.

KeePassXC Debian maintainer has removed all network features
>UPSTREAM THEMSELVES decided not to include in default/recommended build instructions
This is false, or at the very least misleading. It doesn't take much to go on the repository and give a closer look instead of repeating "what other said". Kwpolska already wrote it in this thread, -DWITH_XC_ALL (the flag that's been turned OFF in the original Debian package rules) is explicitly called in the build instructions, and not only there but also one release tool [1] and snap config [2]. This is merely how the project manages its build configuration, with specific flags turned off and one master toggle enabled by default (or expected to be passed to cmake/bash release tool). Same thing for the ppa packaging. [3]

KeepassXC supports exporting, but i don't think it is released in a stable version / to the public yet:

If you use KeePass, make sure you use the KeePassXC variant. KeePass is dead.
