    I don’t use the password manager in Firefox, what a terrible idea.

    Use an independent password manager, something purpose-built.

    And using Linux? Hahaha, right, right. Call me when there’s a serious OneNote, or even more importantly, Excel competitor. (Or even a standard shell on Linux, or the same set of tools built in).

      Firefox Sync was purposefully built too, they didn’t wake up one day to find it on the porch in a basket.

      It syncs passwords, works on desktop and mobile and can do some other cool stuff — syncs tabs and bookmarks, alerts you to password breaches, send tabs from one device to another, lets you export your passwords etc. It’s a good password manager.

      Use an independent password manager, something purpose-built.

      Why? You’re talking as if browser password managers aren’t purpose-built. “I love entering a password to fill my passwords for me instead of entering a password” —statement dreamed up by the utterly deranged. (I think we all should just use auto-locking.)

      OneNote

      Web-based stuff like Notion and Google Keep

      Excel

      LibreOffice Calc with Tabbed UI

      standard shell

      what is that

      It is not the software which can lack seriousness, but the developer and the user. One is proprietary where the developer controls the user’s computing - the other is free software where the user is in control (free as in freedom).
