Sorry, what I said was probably confusing.

I meant, I keep the password to KeePass in my brain and in backup places. I'm unlikely to lose all those.

>Also, it's not a big problem if one of your devices dies, as long as you paired enough devices you won't lose any passwords.

Not everyone has a million devices.

Ah ok, got it. If you are already using KeePass than there is no reason to use NoKey, KeePass is great!

> Not everyone has a million devices.

I don't think that's fair. With 3 devices you're perfectly ok. Or even with only 2, if you also use a "key box" (gives you one "device" more at the cost of having to remember a password).

I only routinely use 2 devices. I'm very heavily into the tech scene and could afford more devices if I wished.

Some people don't live in a place where it's easy to afford multiple devices.

Many non-tech people don't even use a desktop PC anymore. They just have a smartphone.

Believe what you will, but it is certainly fair to say not everyone has enough devices for this service to make sense. For example, me, with 2 devices.

Exactly.
