In Ask HN: Does anyone use an alternative to a password manager?I've been using password managers for while now, but I've recently discovered pass-rotate: https://github.com/SirCmpwn/pass-rotate
It's basically a rotation manager ! Very powerful and lets you properly change your passwords regularly on many websites (like the proprietary Dashlane Password Changer or Lastpass' similar feature).
In Pass: A standard Unix password managerI can't help you with #4, but I've been a pass user for a long time: https://www.passwordstore.org/
It encrypts your passwords with your GPG key and stores them in a git repository. You can of course easily extend this to do a lot of different things.
I also wrote this tool for automating password rotation:

I posted it on here the other day but it didn't go far. It's like youtube-dl but instead of downloading videos it changes your password on various online services. If you get your password compromised by vunlerabilities or whatnot it makes it easy to mass-rotate your passwords. Could use some help adding support for more websites if you're interested.
