Does this apply to the offline installer too?

I can't even signup. Keep getting a "The e-mail could not be sent." error.

I am willing to think that Google performs fingerprinting on the OAUTH login dialog window, which if prevented, similar to the comment above regarding Firefox being unsafe, it would block login through OAUTH as it pleases.

Giving out a Null value has less entropy than a unique value. It may also be likely that it gets dropped when computing the overall fingerprint.

Not an attack vector per se, but largely used for fingerprinting.

What makes you think otherwise? Some people's brains are wired differently?

Just as you can run any program on any machine given enough time and resources (memory), anyone not lacking intellectual ability can learn anything - some quicker, some slower.

Right now on websites it's not displayed as green, but blue (or greenish blue). Even the traffic light is called blue here (青) and they would look at you with surprise if you say the lights are green!

> I would inevitably run into a sync issues

Could it be that you weren't using it correctly? KeePass database files aren't supposed to remain open (for security of course) and it has quite a number of options to automatically close it after certain amount of time or when the window isn't focus, computer is locked, etc. This would trigger a sync with the (NC) server and assuming that all your clients follow the same usage pattern and close the DB after a small window of time, there shouldn't be any conflict.

> NextCloud to be always up of course, also self-hosted

You could use NextCloud's own hosting. But then Bitwarden's server needs to always be up too, and optionally self-hosted.

> Bitwarden just works

A low bar to recommend a password manager, don't you think so?

Exactly this. I never understood why I had to go online when reinstalling MacOS.

I have been and still am a Zotero user. But I found it unfortunate that back in grad school many of my peers still used Mendeley. The school library even had workshops/classes in which they taught how to use the software. I found it ironic that despite paying loads of money to Elsevier for the journal subscriptions, they were advertising their software too!
