Rofi frontend for Bitwarden

MangoPenguin, 14 days ago

What is it? I looked up rofi but that’s even more confusing. Maybe a screenshot or two would help in the readme?

Rofi is a window switcher, run dialog and dmenu replacement. Screenshots : screenshots.debian.net/package/rofi

So that means that with a keyboard shortcut a menu will pop up where you can either start typing and it will do suggestions for you, or you click on what is already available. It’s nice for people who prefer to not do too many mouse clicking (think : RSI).

That’s neat but how is it related to bitwarden? That’s where I’m stumped.

I’ve not looked much further into this software but it looks like it would use rbw, a command line tool for Bitwarden, to work with rofi.

I would only use it if the devs are highly reputable. It contains all your passwords and possibly all your wealth as well.

I’m not saying the dev isn’t. I’m just saying that with this you really have to know what you do.

Good point. Makes me think that at some point in time no one was using KeePassXC (or KeePass or similar) or Bitwarden. Same for the first 2FA security keys. Who can you trust ? There will always be a trust decision to make or audit or have it audited or what not.

Na fork it and do your own security analysis

Oh cool, I didn’t realize that there were frontends for bitwarden. Does anybody use this, or similar ones? If so, what’s your thoughts on them?

This OpenBSD developer is where I got the link from : bsd.network/ and there’s Goldwarden, a desktop app for Bitwarden : flathub.org/apps/com.quexten.Goldwarden
