To backup the passwords a copy of ~/.password-store/ is enough, but to completely recover, a backup of the gpg keys is also required. What's your strategy for this? Do you just backup the entire ~/.gnupg/ directory?

I'm looking forward to the release that will heavily reduce use of Javascript, at least on the frontend.

I'm very interested about the aliases, but I'm not sure that I understand it correctly. I have a example00@fastmail.com address, does this mean that I can also register example01@fastmail.com and example02@fastmail.com as an alias

In this day and age I always verify the authenticity of downloaded ISO images, but this seems not possible with Tinycore Linux as no signatures are available, which makes me somewhat uncomfortable.

> Better UI than GitHub I think that GitHub has a much better UI than GitLab. GitLab is slow and bloated compared to GitHub. Requiring Javascript for browsing the code repository is just bad design.

Please don't ruin something that works fine by adding unnecessary crap. The only thing Microsoft has to do, is to take a good look at GitLab so they know what they absolutely NOT should do.
