Does Lemmy have a “They did the math”? Neat thought experiment!

Diarium Encrypted, save local or your own cloud solution, good features, templates, time stamping, media, weather, etc. Been using it for years.

This is dice propaganda from bad dice that want you to stop punishing them. Don’t fall for it.

Sure. It can be “less” secure from a procedural perspective because it increases the complexity of the user accessing their info. The more difficult/complicated it is for the user, the more likely of user mistakes exposing their accounts in one way or another. Obviously there are password apps that allow for seamless login (some of those can also be problematic), which alleviates the complexity, but then you have multiple email accounts to manage on some level for the various services and websites you use.

End of day, if it works, it works, but it’s important to pay attention to your user experience while also taking in to account the various tools (strong pass, mfa, etc) when setting yourself up. If you get annoyed that you have too many emails to manage, you might be more likely to not log out, or not use mfa, etc.

edit wasn’t trying to say it was WAY more insecure to use separate emails, just that it probably wasn’t necessary if you have different pass and use mfa. Sometimes ‘more, better’ isn’t ‘more-better’.

They’d only have all account info if the passwords were also the same and you didn’t avail yourself of 2fa/mfa. It’s better to have different strong passwords/long passphrases and use mfa. Separate email accounts become their own vectors for account hacking, not to mention that any personal security scheme you have that becomes too complicated with multiple accounts to juggle is it’s own security problem.

Vivaldi tab management is pretty great. Vivaldi is designed for power users that always have a ton of tabs open. There are a bunch of other features as well that I use regularly, but I could see that it might be a bit of a learning curve for those that just want to install a browser and immediately know where everything is. There has been more than a few times that I discovered yet another efficiency using Vivaldi and felt like I was getting more from it. Definitely a browser for someone willing to spend time configuring it for their use case. Keyboard shortcuts ftw!
