New update of Passky (Password Manager) will soon enter the testing stage.
Now is your chance to help translate an open source project into your language. https://crowdin.com/project/passky
Passky
I have implemented a license system to Passky, but now I'm looking for a payment provider that could also deliver license keys to customers.
SendOwl seems to do exactly that.
GumRoad and Lemon Squeezy does not support custom license systems, so with them you can only use their own license system.
But GumRoad and Lemon Squeezy also seems to take care for taxes, while SendOwl doesn't.
Also at the end of the video you will still see that license key is unused. I have cached data in order to reduce the amount of database queries.
this cache will last for 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes you will see that this license key has been used by user rabbitcompany3
To be honest I can also remove the cache for license keys every time someone use one.
I bet people won't use license key every second.
And if this is the case I will be earning $1440 per minute anyways.
I have removed the cache for license keys when someone use it.
Currently I'm really focused on optimization / performance, so I will be able to scale like other password managers but with a lot lower server costs / expenses.
Also I did not want to infect this open source project with PayPal, Stripe or any other integration of payment processor. That's why I made license system. So self-hosters can use what ever payment processor they want on top of license system.
Will use SendOwl and if I wouldn't like it, I can just switch to another in the future.
I have also found better option than SendOwl for selling license keys.
sell.app
it also support cryptocurrencies, so it is a win for me.
Passky 8.0.0 is currently in a testing stage and it would be great if you could check it and provide us with some feedback.
Client: https://dev.passky.pages.dev
Server: https://dev.passky.org
Instructions for testing Passky Client:
- Open Passky Client -> https://dev.passky.pages.dev
- Navigate to Sign Up page by clicking on 'Sign Up' button.
- In first field you will see Server selector where you can choose between Europe and America.
As we are currently in a testing stage you would need to enter Passky Server URL on your own. (https://dev.passky.org) - You can now continue to use Passky as in production
Instructions for testing Admin Panel:
- Open Admin Panel -> https://dev.passky.org
- Click on 'Log in' button
- Enter 'admin' as username and '123' as password
- Now you can create, delete, edit license keys and accounts.
Note that everyone has access to Admin Panel, so they can see your email. Make sure to use invalid email like: [email protected] when creating your account.
Development Passky servers have now been deployed behind CloudFlares Load Balancer. So for testing use Europe server.
Infrastructure of Passky v8.0.0
After 2 years of development, Passky (Password Manager) is finally ready to reach the masses.
Version 8.0.0 changes from old and arguably less secure AES to XChaCha20 encryption (Currently only Passky and NordPass have switched to XChaCha20).
And for master password hashing we have switched to Argon2id which is currently one of the best and recommended password hashing algorithm. (I can't find if any password manager uses it yet (Most of them still uses old PBKDF2 (SHA256))).
So on the paper you can say that Passky is currently the most secure cloud based password manager!
Passky is also one of the rarest password manager that does not hide any security features behind the paywall. Both software and hardware 2FA are available in free plan.
Don't take my word verify the source code: https://github.com/Rabbit-Company/Passky-Server
Did I also mention that Passky is one of the easiest cloud based password manager to self-host? 😉
And arguably the best looking one.
Quick update:
Passky (password manager) now supports SQLite, making self-hosting a breeze. Additionally, Passky can now be installed on Linode with just few clicks. The recent update also includes the highly requested auto-fill feature, making password management effortless.
