Hi Nils! If you want to store your passwords within Firefox, I guess I don't quite understand why the solution isn't just to use Lockwise. Is there something I'm missing? To your proposal, I suspect you'd have to do some sync between pass and Firefox's password store, which might be messy and prone to errors, to be honest. Personally, I open up a terminal and copy the password using `pass -c`, since Firefox is sandboxed using firejail and doesn't have access to my password store (and it will *never* have access to my password store). I think it's somewhat dangerous to expose the single riskiest program on your computer to your password store. Browsers are extremely complex and are already dealing with tons of untrusted input from malicious or compromised websites. Giving that program access to as little data as possible seems to be a good policy, in my opinion. Cheers! - Chiraag -- ಚಿರಾಗ್ ನಟರಾಜ್ Pronouns: he/him/his
