I should get this for my dad, he recently got a new computer at best buy and the geek squad told him his files were all in the cloud and sent him home. Guess who got a call the next day because "all my passwords are in a word document in some fucking cloud". Yeah that was a fun day spent setting up his computer while listening to his rant about the geek squad and "the fucking cloud".... thanks geek squad....

    As a software engineer who values humanity has done a good bit of work with "the cloud", i think your dad has the right set of feelings towards the cloud. That fucking cloud can go get bent

    Oh I agree but it would be nice if he'd have listened to me years ago and started using a password manager at least. I know he'll never go full self hosting, but come on at least use Bitwarden!
