  3. platform-compat

    Discontinued Roslyn analyzer that finds usages of APIs that will throw PlatformNotSupportedException on certain platforms.

    Note the KeePass's resistance to the attack mentioned depends on the security of .NET's secure string, which, here's what Microsoft has to say about it (https://github.com/dotnet/platform-compat/blob/master/docs/D...)

    As for KeePassXC, last I checked it didn't even bother.

  4. bromite

    Bromite is a Chromium fork with ad blocking and privacy enhancements; take back your browser!

    Maybe I was a bit too harsh on Bitwarden for a moment there, it's chiefly an issue with chromium. https://github.com/bromite/bromite/issues/547

    The current workaround for the above issue is using the accessibility compatibility service.
