You cannot specify ports in a DNS A or AAAA record. www.example.com cannot resolve to 1.2.3.4:443 and app.domain.com cannot resolve to 1.2.3.4:5555

If the application (be it a game or whatnot) supports it, SRV records can identify a port for a hostname. So, you could have minecraft1.domain.com and an SRV record to specify port 25565, and minecraft2.domain.com SRV 25566.

This means you can have multiple Minecraft servers with the same IP address, but you won’t need to give people the port numbers to remember; the hostname allows the game to look up the port via the SRV record.

This is great for selfhosters because we generally only get one IP (until they rollout IPv6; probably half the reason they don’t)

You are correct, but the way people reacted is certainly conditioning from the rug-pulling enshittification going on daily in the tech world. (What are we all using instead of redis, again?)

This is a much more level take than your first comment.

They didn’t try anything. Stop inventing. Go read an actual article on the subject instead of feeding the scarebait frenzy.

“I only read the headline and the comments from the threads a week ago, I am truly disappointed in Bitwarden’s stance against FOSS as I’ve misunderstood it.”

I notice there aren’t a lot of Dashlane fans. (I use Bitwarden myself.)

Is there something wrong with them?

Wasn't there multiple password managers that got powned over the years ?

Pretty much only LastPass

That’s weird, it works for me. Is there something you need to click on the mobile site?

Bitwarden just announced a consortium with Apple, Google, 1Password, etc to create a secure import/export format for credentials; spurred by the need for passkeys to be portable between password managers (but also works for passwords/other credential types)

All the major password managers store passkeys now. I have every passkey I’ve been able to make stored in Bitwarden, and they’re accessible on all my devices.

Article is behind the times, and this dude was wrong to “rip out” passkeys as an option.
