Comments on How to manage your passwords with Enpass on Linux
Enpass is an advanced password manager that works natively on Linux. Although its open source nature is limited in the use of a free software encryption engine called SQLCipher, the tool offers good integration with widely used online services and can serve as a central platform where a lot of different passwords, accounts, and other miscellaneous information can be added. That said, it can be useful to many Linux users out there so here's a quick guide on how to set it up.

There are FLOSS alternatives like KeepassX (https://www.keepassx.org/), KeepassC (https://raymontag.github.io/keepassc/), Pass (http://www.passwordstore.org/).
Yes there are, and some are really good. However unfortunately I have yet to find one FLOSS solution to that problem that is even remotely close to Enpass when talking about usability. Especially Keepass(X/C/2) on Linux completely sucks. There's a bunch of different works and versions, some of them slightly incompatible to each other, none of them being a "nativ" Linux UI in terms of look-and-feel, most of them relying upon "questionable" (unsupported?) third-party-plugins for things such as browser integration. This is a bit sad as indeed the idea of having an open-source (thus reviewable) piece of software would be beneficial here but in the end the hurdle to get this working well is by magnitudes higher than using Enpass or even worse pieces of software. :/
