I can't believe it was possible to do that with CSS. Looks "good" (actually bad, but what I expected it to look like) in Firefox but looks bad-bad in Chrome because it renders the unicode symbols in all black instead of with colors. ...actually, it looks like it's just my Chrome desktop browser doing that. On mobile it looks right as well.

I never used a password manager before. I should probably look into that.

How does it work if you want to log in from another device and you're using all generated passwords in the password manager?


  • It's a good idea, but maybe it needs some redesigning... - Puckdropper, Mon Jul 25 2022 2:14am
    What if you didn't make it quite so obvious? Or um maybe made it *more* obvious with actual Petunias and Roses (I'm sure there's a Unicode symbol for them... it has everything else!) I rely on uBlock because deleting cookies is annoying. Especially when you have to log in again, but if you're not... more

        It's just weird and silly enough to be fun. You have to open the Password Manager on your device and type the password in manually on the other device. There's some cloud-based services out there, but what happens if they guess your cloud-based password manager password? You can save the file and... more
        • Probably could be made to look nicer with some more work put in (ex: Starting the flowers not at the center of the character like they are now on the edges) Ah, so is that sort of like the password section of Firefox? It lists all the URLs you have passwords saved for and you can then click on the... more
          • Yes, Firefox probably contains a full password manager now - Puckdropper, Sat Aug 06 2022 3:41am
            I'm wondering if websites will just start assigning you a password that fits their requirements (I should find a "high profile" website with such restrictive rules there's only like 16 passwords available and brute force them all--then publish it.) I keep it on the computer only, anything that I need... more
            • Speaking of cloud password managers getting hacked! - Erik_, Fri Aug 26 2022 8:29am
              Just happened to LastPass: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/lastpass-developer-systems-hacked-to-steal-source-code/
              • Looks like they had some source code stolen - Puckdropper, Sat Sep 03 2022 3:20am
                IIRC, KeePass is open source so you can read the source yourself if you'd like. I really do find it interesting that things can be very open and very secure. It seems like they'd be opposing forces but instead they're complementary.
