I recently learned that you can make many apps such as browsers portable on a USB drive and I was wondering, aside from being able to take it on the go, what other advantages does portable apps have? I know it won’t take up much storage. Is there any privacy benefits?
One of the uses I was thinking of was putting a password manager on a USB. Not only it’s portable, but I don’t have my passwords in the cloud, it’s offline storage. And so long as I encrypt the USB, access to the drive would be denied. But I don’t know if its worth it.
Hmm… you probably want your passwords on your phone?
I use keepassxc and sync with syncthing.
Its not off-line, but its not on public infrastructure.
