What thing do you possess that is objectively priceless and inherently valuable (in material/NOT entimental value)? (sopuli.xyz)

Can you... can you give us an example of a thing that fits this description?

[–] sopularity_fax@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Sure! My passwordmanagerfile. I had to spend an ENTIRE DAY(!) manually copying over or resetting account passwords when 1Password announced and enforced in their apps that they were becoming subscription only and my passwords couldnt sync between my iPhone and Mac 1Password apps I paid the full app cost for respectively.

Never again would I ever leave control of my shit to a profit-driven company

I would argue this is the exact opposite of what you requested.

Your example is subjectively priceless.

Subjectively because I too have changed password managers. It took me more than a day but less than a week, and that means it’s quite easy for me to put a price on.

There is no material value in your password file.

You can just export all your passwords from 1password and import them somewhere else. Iirc bitwarden supported 1passwords full format when I moved. Pretty sure there are importer plugins for keepass as well.

Now you can just, I dont believe it was that way when I'm talking about. It definitely wasnt like seamless at the time or why would I have had to have spent all that time?

It's been available since 1password 8 in 2020. But even before that, they've always had CSV exports, which keepass also has importers for.

why would I have had to have spent all that time?

I'm pretty sure you didn't have to.
