No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Yeah this one bothers me. My spouse is clueless about technology and our online accounts. When I did estate planning with my lawyer, they said the paperwork would grant access to everything. My spouse's grown kids (previous marriage) are tech savvy, which helps.
I've thought about leaving instructions and passwords on a USB thumb drive, but that idea has a number of flaws.
Leave instructions and passwords on paper
I am a little biased toward 1Password, and they have a guide that has really good points. But in the end, they say to print out their "Emergency Kit" and store it will your will/estate. So, not much better than leaving a password behind (or any other shared secret). I guess I'll have to set up some sort of irl treasure hunt...
In case you hadn’t seen the news.
I’ve been a paying customer and advocate of 1Password for over a decade but I’ve made the switch to something else.
What is the something else? As far as I can tell, all the password managers suck. Just seemed to me that 1Password sucked less.
For me, I narrowed it down to Bitwarden and Proton Pass.
I found it very hard to test both in parallel so I ended up just kind of making a feel-based call. I think either would have been fine, but I don’t think either is as nice as 1Password.
Bitwarden supports transferring passkeys from other password managers (on iOS anyway) but Proton Pass doesn’t. That was going to be the deciding factor for me, but the transfer failed (I believe this was a failure at the OS level; not Bitwarden’s fault) so I ultimately went with Proton Pass because I felt the interface was a little cleaner.
Vaultwarden if you can manage a selfhosted option. It allows you to set a specified account to be able to take yours over after a delay (in case you die)
I started using Bitwarden only a few months before Proton pass came out. I want to switch, but I’m so lazy. Having the email alias feature built into the password manager would make my life so much easier.
Move to KeePass. It's simpler in the long run, and they don't sponsor dirtbags.
