The SSO tax kills me. I just want to auto log into things. And my stupid password manager doesn’t respect subdomains, so it shows me 100 credentials on each site I host.
I’m on board with this. It sucks and it makes things a lot easier to be able to have SSO.
But I’m also peeved the SSO tax is nearly always in the enterprise tier and never in the first paying tier. Even if you’d want to pay for it, the enterprise cost is usually a multitude in price with features you likely don’t need.
They just know companies have policies that enforce SSO for compliancy reasons and are forced to pay.
But as a self hoster the enterprise tier is even more disgustingly expensive.
But the open source projects we use and love also deserve contributions ( financially ). But as a self hosted there’s also a financial incentive to self host and not take everything as a SaaS ( besides the obvious take control of your data ).
Edit: I mean I agree with the selfh.st statement and yours ( for clarity)
Which password manager? I had the same problem with BitWarden until I found a buried setting to tweak each password domain. Maybe there’s a badly advertised feature in yours, too?
You can change the default setting for Bitwarden, which works well. If another site changes their login subdomain it can be a bit annoying, but worth it for me for better local domain separation.
This is just from my experience with Bitwarden, but if a site changes it’s login subdomain, you will have to search Bitwarden for the last subdomain, go ahead and log in and Bitwarden should ask ‘Do you want to update Bitwarden?’

Holy crap, they added it! I’m on 1password and hadn’t checked in a while it seems.
I’m an idiot :-). But thanks
It’s really annoying to go into each entry for items in my local domain and change the detection to host and do that for every service I spin up.

Yep, or I just tell it to auto fill after finding it, and it asks me if I want to save the new domain to the site while auto filling.
