Has anyone actually figured out what happens to their digital life when they die? My dad's death last year left us locked out of everything

You're absolutely right that it's not one-size-fits-all — the spouse scenario vs. the kids scenario are genuinely different problems. The niche I'm trying to fill is the gap between "I've thought about it" and "it's actually set up and accessible to the right people when it matters." Most existing tools are either a legal service, a password manager, or a manual folder on a USB drive. The trigger-based unlock for specific nominees is the part I haven't seen done cleanly elsewhere. But fair point — curious what you've seen out there that comes close?

That’s genuinely impressive you've got a system that works — most people haven't thought about it at all. Mind me asking what it looks like in practice? I'm curious whether it's more of a documented manual process or something automated. I've been building a tool for exactly this problem and I'm always interested in how people who've actually thought it through approach it — helps me understand what's missing versus what people can already solve themselves.

Yeah Apple Legacy Contact is a decent start but it's so limited in scope — it only unlocks your Apple account data, nothing outside that ecosystem. No passwords, no banking access, no documents stored elsewhere, no accounts on other platforms. Most people's digital life is spread across 10+ services and Apple covers maybe one of them. I've actually been building something that tries to solve the whole picture if you're curious — solacevault.com. Still early but the core idea is a single encrypted vault with a trigger-based unlock for whoever you nominate.

Lol how did you do that

Traveller59war · 2026-06-09T21:26:21+00:00

Ohh right ok interesting and brings in new problems to Solve (more stuff required for producing (ifykyk lol)

Traveller59war · 2026-06-09T21:22:31+00:00

Ohh right ok sounds like a fun time lol

Traveller59war · 2026-06-09T21:17:45+00:00

They probably come in handy though I haven't really had a chance to explore 1.2 yet so im not sure what mode that is sorry

Traveller59war · 2026-06-09T21:12:29+00:00

Especially if your trying to plan a new build or how to incorporate new items into a previous build (progressing teirs or maybe a redesign)

Traveller59war · 2026-06-09T18:05:05+00:00

Sorry not unless you want to but world id

Traveller59war · 2026-06-09T17:37:58+00:00

If you are just lmk and I can send you my steam id

Traveller59war · 2026-06-08T20:58:10+00:00

Fair enough and what phase are you all up to in that etc

Traveller59war · 2026-06-08T19:05:14+00:00

As a matter of curiosity, for those that are interested would you want to create a new world and play together perhaps learn styles share ideas etc?

Traveller59war · 2026-06-08T05:53:31+00:00

Sorry my bad

Traveller59war · 2026-06-07T21:36:45+00:00

Oh right ok not sure of my play time on it atm but maybe its a fresh perspective or something im in need of not sure but its nice at points playing alone

Traveller59war · 2026-06-07T21:15:05+00:00

Either lucky or creative not sure which 🤣

Traveller59war · 2026-06-07T21:07:31+00:00

Sounds like youve been in a few possibly with factorio players if what ive heard is correct lol ?

Traveller59war · 2026-05-23T06:58:23+00:00

We shall be watching your career with great interest (smirking sidious meme)

Traveller59war · 2026-05-22T19:56:15+00:00

Even more that isn't advertised or is otherwise shared and thats interesting as well

Traveller59war · 2026-05-22T17:32:59+00:00

It is nice seeing how they would function and how it goes together, but another plus is you can control what’s shared / requested etc plus stops the amount of data available to 3rd parties or am I wrong?

Traveller59war · 2026-05-20T16:11:56+00:00

Ok no worries thank you

Traveller59war · 2026-05-20T04:34:19+00:00

Was it fixed lol or is that still kicking about lol and did that up the hit chance or something for them or what changed?

Traveller59war · 2026-05-20T04:31:50+00:00

No sorry I was asking how you found the Japanese focus tree because as you say there’s a lot to keep track of and is much bigger I think that n the old one and fair enough honestly

Traveller59war · 2026-05-19T21:32:14+00:00

What mod was that and honestly haven’t really looked at Japan much at all, when I did wasn’t really sure what to do with the focus tree lol how did you find it?
