I'm currently working on Bramble, an open source password manager with P2P cross-device sync. Initially I released the Chrome extension, but recently I also published the Android app and iOS is pending Apple's approval. Besides that, the latest version also includes passkey stora...

if you mean why I didn't choose a lib like automerge, yjs and instead handrolled it - that's because these libs are geared towards plaintext.Bramble's sync is built around its own encrypted vault instead. When two devices conflict it just compares timestamps on the encrypted entr...

Thanks!Way less overhead than hosting your own vaultwarden instance, so way more user friendly with basically the same effect. The big difference is there's no server at all. With vaultwarden you're running a box that holds your whole vault and you have to keep it patched, backed...

This looks and sounds interesting! Where are the passwords stored locally? Like bramble (local) stores it or it creates a reserved disk space which is prohibited to access?

How this solves sync seems useful. If you use Google Drive and KeePass clients you will probably run into conflicts between keepass "safe save" and how google drive does file versioning, resulting in runaway duplication of your kdbx files. I started using Syncthing and KeePass. F...

Deeper analysis

  • The dominant theme in discussion was enthusiasm around the serverless peer-to-peer sync design, which commenters compared favorably to self-hosted alternatives.
  • Sentiment across the window was positive with no complaint themes recorded, though the low mention volume limits how broadly that tone can be read.
  • Some division emerged around storage transparency, with at least one commenter pressing for clearer answers about where and how passwords are held locally.
  • The audience driving discussion appeared technically experienced, shaping a conversation that was more architectural than general in focus.

Discussion around Bramble over the recent four-week window was limited in volume but notably focused and technically engaged. With only five mentions captured, the conversation skewed heavily toward early adopters and developers rather than a broad general audience, yet the tone across those mentions was largely curious and receptive. Feature praise accounted for the largest share of theme signals, with commenters gravitating toward the product's peer-to-peer sync architecture as the most conversation-worthy aspect. Several mentions framed this design choice favorably by comparing it to more cumbersome self-hosted alternatives, with one commenter suggesting the absence of a central server represented a meaningful usability advantage over comparable tools.

The technical depth of the discussion was a defining characteristic of the window. Commenters raised pointed questions about local storage behavior and data residency, reflecting a privacy-conscious audience that appeared genuinely interested rather than skeptical. The handling of device conflicts during sync drew particular attention, and discussion suggested that the decision to build a custom encrypted sync layer rather than adopt existing libraries landed well among those familiar with the tradeoffs involved. This thread of conversation contributed to the mild but present privacy-concern signal in the theme data.

Sentiment direction is difficult to assess with confidence given the single data point in the score trajectory, but the tone at that point was broadly positive with no complaint themes surfacing at all. Opinion was not sharply divided, though the storage question from one commenter hinted at an area where some uncertainty lingered. The overall picture painted by discussion was of a product in early public visibility, drawing an attentive and technically literate audience that was largely willing to engage on its own terms.
