Hi everyone,

I just came across this project called LessPass, which doesn’t require a database as a back-end and can compute passwords on the fly instead of storing them. The idea really intrigued me, and I wanted to know from the community about the experience of using it - did you run into any troubles with it? How does it compare to more traditional password managers (which would need me to think of a back-up strategy)?

Is it possible to back up your passwords from LessPass? Can you use your own passwords when you prefer to? How are the client programs?

Thanks!

    The abbreviation method LessPass uses works pretty well. Its usually only a problem with a re-branding, like how wefwef changed to voyager. When that happens it’s not too big of a deal, I just change it to the new thing.

    What is a big problem with the URL though is login portals. Like when it’s some conglomerated system that involves a million redirects, and/or a “login with XYZ”. They can get some really weird URLs that have nothing to do with the actual site and those are a real pain.
