@mckinley@twtxt.net I use both KeePassXC and pass/pass-tomb. I find KeePassXC far superior. One major gripe I have with pass is that it is way, way, way too easy to end up with your passwords displayed on the screen in cleartext. That’s the default behavior of the pass CLI–you need to use the -c switch if you only want the password copied to the clipboard. I’ve been playing with the browser extension for pass and have flashed half a dozen passwords up on the monitor for the world to see, totally unexpectedly and accidentally. Even now that I know the way it can happen, I still end up doing it, because it’s just too easy. I don’t like that, and will be deleting the extension. I’ve never had that problem with KeePassXC.

I find it to be surprisingly bad behavior, personally. It’s soured me on pass, even though I generally like it as a command-line tool.
