hi, what do you think of https://github.com/lesspass/lesspass <https://github.com/lesspass/lesspass> ? the principle seems interesting : it consists in reconstructing the password from a piece of information (which can be synchronized easily/simply) and a secret (master password)... regards.
I used to use something similar. The problem comes when sites make you change your password. When that happens, you would need to change some seed value that you use to help compute that site's password - say from "v1" to "v2". And then you need to *store* that seed value somewhere, so you'll remember to use it next time. And then you need to sync that seed value out to your devices. And at that point, you might as well just be storing and synching the passwords, rather than just the seed value. DR
