1 year agoThis is often called a “stateless” or “generative” password manager, and while they do have some benefits they tend to be rather niche.
The main issue is losing the ability to easily change the master passwords as well as making it more difficult to deal with password requirements.
Also, for most users the sort of access needed to steal an encrypted password vault isn’t much different from what is needed to grab a master password as its being used, so the benefit is very limited.

I’m not sure how this makes any sense given Signal is for.
Signal’s main use case of being easy to use end-to-end encrypted chat runs directly counter to being a Fediverse application.
Something like Matrix or XMPP might be a better candidate for the Fediverse, but even then they’re “chat” protocols that runs at a very different pace than something like ActivityPub so that probably wouldn’t make sense either.
