Aussie dev building @buttercup_pw. All things JS/Node/React/Native. Opinions my own.

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

Thanks so much everyone for all the support, kind words and shout outs that have gotten Buttercup this far! We’re finally hosting our service 🥳

Hey @MicrosoftEdge @MSEdgeDev, can someone help me get access to @buttercup_pw's Edge addon account? I have no idea what account it's published under, and can't seem to find where to manage it.

Need help releasing an update for it: https://t.co/t5s2L2Yera

Buttercup wins 20i’s FOSS awards in the Password Management category! Thanks to everyone who voted!

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

Hey @hostedby20i, any news on the FOSS awards? Seems it’s been moved twice now.

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

@iamharaldur Well that was depressing, reading all the comments. How hard is it to just be receptive to people and their identities? Just don’t be an assuming asshole. That’s all.

It takes far more work to fight this than it does to realise that it doesn’t harm you in any way..

Help support Buttercup by voting in these FOSS awards 🙏🔒

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

There’s a lot to do; a lot to build.. and Buttercup needs help. It’s all modern tooling, TS/node, Electron/react-native. We need help on greenfield projects, not just maintenance. And it’s for an open source project that’s vital for security - myself and many others use it daily.

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

Do I know any JS/Node devs based in south Finland that are interested in getting in on @buttercup_pw (password manager development)? Looking for meeting devs that would want to help develop the platform and take it through to its next stage: SaaS/licensed services, CLI/dev tools

@jsconfit @phpday Thank you! It was great. ✌️

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

@grusp Hey peeps! Thanks for the amazing conf again.. will you be sharing the slides from the talks, as well as the videos?

Lots of extremely valuable information.. 🙏

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

@jsconfit @buttercup_pw Can’t wait! Cheers 🙏

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

Heading to @jsconfit this April in Verona.. I think this might be trip #4 there. Anyone I know going? It’s such a great vibe and conference.. I’d highly recommend it. Would be nice to hang out with some devs / @buttercup_pw users 😎

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

@robbyrussell Maybe just help them pickup better overall git practices, like using `git status` before adding items.

Hey @mozthunderbird - Looks like the PayPal donation option gets blocked by some tracker blocklists. Seems a bit off to me that you start off with data privacy sentiments but use services that flagrantly use tracking on the donation page.

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

@ariaminaei Sorry to hear this.. I have had a similar pain ever since I absentmindedly put my number on investing-dot-com (don't). Got a huge influx of calls for several weeks, and it slowly petered out over some months. Still get the occasional call but they don't speak to me anymore 😅.

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

Has apparently been available since 2015/2016 (FF/Chrome), but supported in Safari and Edge since 2020. Not sure how I glossed over this for 3 years.. Would have saved me tonnes of times.

Am now using in as the backbone in a browser ext: far better than base extension options.

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

Just discovered the BroadcastChannel API, and am amazed I hadn't heard of this before. `postMessage`-like interface available for tabs/windows of the same origin (browser extensions count), and supported by all current browsers 🤯: https://t.co/PMb0KktCQJ

[Buttercup @buttercup_pw]

We’re aware of the recent Google Drive failures resulting in 401 errors - not yet sure why this is happening but we’re looking into it.

Anyone able to retrieve response headers for this 401 error are advised to send them (privately) to us as it may help the investigation 🙏

[Perry @perry_mitchell]

@HelsinkiAirport what’s with the insanely long passport control lines? First time my family arrives since pre-pandemic and you start them off with massive queues and too few staff getting them through? Expected much better processes here.. 😔
