Oh man, I just looked up the Xperia Z4 and noticed that it's like 10 years old. Can't say that I'm surprised that there are basically no ROMs.

I don't really think a separate device like a phone is necessary to store 2FA tokens, the only option I would consider is a hardware key like YubiKey for storing TOTPs.

I don't recommend installing random builds from forums like XDA. GrapheneOS definitely doesn't have an official version for anything other than Pixels, you might want to try LineageOS if you want to throw the tablet out anyway

Personally I wouldn't keep my TOTP together with my passwords, but it's up to you

Don't let this misleading Wired article fearmonger you. I recommend this thread, which provides some nuance to this drama: https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/112967805820394815

GrapheneOS doesn't include this, along with many other unnecessary carrier apps

It's only compatible with modern Pixel devices, so unless you're old tablet is a Google Pixel Tablet, you can't install it anyway. But the installer is super easy to use (if you have a compatible device). It's literally all in your web browser.

The GrapheneOS guys also explained why this isn't nearly as bad as it sounds, and how Wired is simply fearmongering: https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/112967309987371034

The story isn't nearly as dramatic as it seems. Maybe this thread can offer some nuance: https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/112967309987371034

Using 2FA on all accounts that offer it is just as important. And make sure to use a good, open-source TOTP client like Aegis on Android or Tofu on iOS.

Definitely make sure to backup your seeds in an encrypted format (e.g. Veracrypt container or GPG-encrypted files). If you lose your seeds, you lose access to your accounts.
I like to use the automatic backup feature in Aegis, which syncs my encrypted vault to my Nextcloud server. You can also enable compatibility with Android's backup API and use that if your ROM includes a backup solution like Seedvault.

Except a lot of homelab software doesn't support things like LDAP

it’s hard to look inside and manually edit

It's actually pretty easy when you're on a Mac. They bundle an app called Keychain Access, which lets you look at and edit everything.

It's not that bad, but tell her that she can set Bitwarden as the default option for auto-fill in the settings and everything will get automatically filled in, just like with the normal Safari password manager

Yes. As long as it's secure and open-source, has all the features you need and you're comfortable with the user interface, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, and you should use what you like.

I think that's because KDE has just reimplemented it to work on Wayland, but it's not there by default. This is a feature of X.

I also have Caps Lock als Ctrl, but I leave Cmd where it is by default, and I just disable the Ctrl key.

Some terminals use weird combinations like Shift + Insert, which is ridiculous, because it requires me to take my right hand off the mouse to hit the insert key

I appreciate this

You can actually unlock LUKS from another machine over SSH: https://www.cyberciti.biz/security/how-to-unlock-luks-using-dropbear-ssh-keys-remotely-in-linux/

I'm pretty happy with this solution

You can get Vi keybindings in Emacs, I use Evil mode all the time
