    Is typing “pass” into a terminal really that much harder than typing <passwordmanager>.com into a browser?

      I really don’t know why you think I’m doing that in the first place.

        Because unless you paid someone else to set up an account for you, you had to get there somehow. And if you’re using the built in password manager from your browser, none of this article is relevant to you anyway.

          Most people use an extension on web and an app that uses the system autofil functionality on mobile (at least on android, I’ve not used iOS for a long time)

          You don’t have to open anything, or type anything other than a password. On mobile you just use your fingerprint, don’t have to type anything at all.

          If you’re taking about initial setup that’s also gonna be a lot more complicated for an average user than bitwarden.

          A command line tool is not even remotely a comparable user experience. It may work wonderfully for you, and I’m glad it does, but it’s pretty out of touch to suggest that it’d be a good fit for most people

          have you heard about bookmarks? browser addons? smartphones? URL-checked autofill?

          keepass is superior to pass. it even has a CLI.

            Yes, that’s why I mentioned account setup. You need to get to the site to bookmark it. And pass has a browser extension too: https://github.com/uri/browserpass

            Keepass was where I started before moving to pass and then vaultwarden.
