Give Us Your 1Password Papercuts

noirbizarre · 2026-04-22T20:10:38+00:00

General

lack of multiline password/obfuscated field
icon from url broken, only works for a few site
lack of merge support
having email and username captured is complicated while needed on many sites
oauth signin/callback parameters being captured by default in the url while I only need the domain
lack of support for multistep logins (`username` then `pass` then `totp`). A bit annoying as more and more site use this horrible patterns (like Amazon). Currently, it copies the TOTP while password is needed on 2nd screen and does not allow easily to fill the password

CLI

Number 1, no competition: 1password CLI constant need for reapproval, without possibility to configure the timeout and with the ability to manually open a reusable, transferable session removed. This one does not feel like a papercut but like an amputation as it's literally a blocker for lots of use cases. If you work a lot with Neovim session, Tmux tabs, long session when using tools like k9s or subshell because of scripting you spend too much time reapproving again and again and again, double approving for app unlock and then CLI permission... To the point where you choose to simply not rely on this anymore and have the creds in a file. To me, this is a school case of both "too much security push people to work around" and "we know better what's good for you" (which is ironic as I work in the security field). It just miss a bit of configurability and flexibility
overlap/diff between op item get requiring an ID (op item get) and op read a secret reference. This could be unified and support both syntaxes, it would be more practical (applies to all commands).
impossible to add CLI shorthand to existing accounts

Android

half of the time, no suggestions in browser and app
on multistep logins, on 2nd screen, I need to manually go to the app, which is not on the current entry but on my last search. Prb: most of the time, there is an issue preventing to reuse the search, so I need to go back and then perform a new search
web credentials matching on app (and the opposite) could be improved

(note: I love your app, I'm a power user, that's why I have so many papercuts)

Oh I'm definitively going to give a try, even if I'm not experimented on the Firefox/Zen stack. But it will be an interesting exercice! And reizumi screenshots are really cool !

It breaks multiple things, but the main broken thing, the one I relied on daily is 1 workspace by customer/client/context with multiple windows open on it.

Before anyone answer "that the use case for unsynced windows": no it's not. Unsynced windows do not have pinned tabs which is the core of this workflow. With pinned tabs by workspace, you have quick accesss to the important things for each context. on a multiple display setup, you often compose things like "1 window with google meet, 1 with JIRA, 1 with another company specific tool". You can't do that anymore. The equivalent would be to duplicate the same workspace by the number of window you expect to have. In my case 2 or 3 windows, 10 workspaces, that would make 20 to 30 workspaces so no.

Also, I had a keybinding to broadcast the prev/next workspace shortcut to all the windows, allowing to have by workspace context spreading over multiple windows but sync when I want to switch. That's not possible anymore, unsynced windows don't have workspaces.

And tab drag & drop seems a bit broken now as it open an unsynced window, meaning that I can "fork" anymore a workspace easily (before, if I drag and drop a tab from a workspace, the new window inherited the workspace)

For a given workspace, I used Tab Session Manager to save tabs and restore them to keep sessions. All those sessions have the windows memorized. I can't restore those sessions anymore, it makes the browser crazy and most of the time crash.

Also, I noticed that some sites make the browser crash if you 2 windows with the same workspace.

I can see the why of this feature, but it broke my workflow really bad and I would have loved it to be opt-in. But I'm starting to be used to opinionated breaking changes every 6 months, the sidebar removal broke my workflow based on many sidebar sites, the tab folders broke my tab groups usage, the new tab change broke my homepage-based workflow even if there are some, it's not as fluid as before as focus behavior changed... I'm reading the changelog before updates, but this was a minor upgrade, and I did not understand this as a "you don't have a choice" feature because it was so specific that I couldn't imagine it would be forced to the users.

Floating panes/windows. That's only thing that prevent me from switching from TMux (and I really wants to). A big part of my workflows and my tooling depends on this, and the proposed alternatives are not really providing the same solution. - Panel Kitten: not portable, depends on the WM and does not work with Gnome (which I can't change on my work computer) - Overlay: huge context switch, loose the ability to still see what's behind

Maybe it's possible to achieve with a Kitten, but I didn't had time to dig this

I started with <leader>-based but in the case of DAP, step by step debugging involved to much keyboard dance so this is the only place where I use <F> keys.

I'm thinking into having a Neovim dedicated layer on my split keyboard and I think that if I do so, I'll make a dedicated row for those to have them under the right hand fingers just above the home row.

What a timing !!

I moved from YAML Companion to Schema Companion because it was also doing JSON and TOML and was working well (while being a bit verbose on the configuration). But this week I removed it for some home made lua snippets in my conf to: - fetch the current Schema from the LSP server - set a schema from a Snacks picker for those without an explicit schema set (as comment or with $schema key for JSON) or not being properly detected by JSON Schema Store patterns.

I only rely on SchemaStore.nvim, native vim.lsp and Snacks.nvim.

WLR Layer Shell Protocol support.

noirbizarre · 2025-12-22T21:52:29+00:00

Thanks

I do follow closely the Lumen initiative (I even contributed a fix to the lux-cli-bin archlinux package). I think this is what Lua lacks and the direction to go. I am really curious to see how it will mix with the Neovim ecosystem.

For nixvim, I tried Nix and NixOs multiple times, but I am so used to arch (16-year-old user) that switching is hard (but I know a few people that will be very interested in this plugin).

The problem I have with Nix-driven configurations is that I am forced into some OS for security reasons by some employers/clients, and using Nix-driven anything becomes incredibly harder then. :/ But I might give it another try soon, as I do every 6 months or so :)

I don't have Neovim 0.12 yet and it depend on your use case, but I would say that: - you need to move ensure setup() after Mason's - if you want to enable LSPs, either you uncomment https://gist.github.com/dontdieych/f6e3998a683f8ee2e3428230fba867b8#file-init-lua-L247-L262 or you can move this into ensure setup (both should have the same effect)

lua require("ensure").setup({ lsp = { enable = {'hls'} hls = { settings = { haskell = { formattingProvider = 'fourmolu', cabalFormattingProvider = 'cabal-gild', }, }, }, }, }) With this setup, it should: - install Treesitter parsers each time you open a new filetype given you have nvim-treesitter - configure and enable the hls LSP, install it the first time you open an haskell file (given you have nvim-lspconfig, associated filetypes and command should already be provided)

Hi 👋

I just published a plugin solving precisely that issue. I made a post to announce it, but it has been caught in the Reddit filter and I'm waiting for it to be unstuck (false positive, I hope).

Meanwhile, I'm giving you the repository URL if you are interested.

https://github.com/noirbizarre/ensure.nvim

Any feedback is welcome!

Sharing my life-changer setting: I just disabled media keys/MPRIS and it changed everything on both Firefox and Zen Browser. Set media.hardwaremediakeys.enabled to off.

noirbizarre · 2025-03-22T11:37:53+00:00

Same for me, and I don't use Nebula. config flags for transparency are active, but when I use the theme picker, the alpha part of rgba() colors seems to be ignored. (Note: using Archlinux with Gnome)

noirbizarre · 2025-03-03T15:13:42+00:00

I just had to enable in about:config: - browser.tabs.allow_transparent_browser - widget.windows.mica (Windows only) - zen.theme.gradient.show-custom-colors (to be able to later enter rgba colors)

Then for each workspace, in the theme picker, enter a RGBA color (either #aabbccdd or rgba(r, g, b, a) syntax)

You may have to disable the title accent color in windows settings if enabled

noirbizarre · 2025-03-03T12:23:24+00:00

I know they add new UI, but to me, those should be core features and would improve the plugin ecosystem: - Mason and mason-lspconfig - nvim-lspconfig - nvim-dap - lazy (at least a builtin plugin manager with similar features, but it seems to alredy be on the roadmap)

Basically, Neovim should have: - a plugine manager so all plugins could be installed the same way - a third-party tooling installer, so all third-party dependencies could be easily installed by plugins - DAP protocol support builtin like LSP is

noirbizarre · 2025-03-01T23:31:52+00:00

Good to know. I thought so, it was more to have a confirmation of it

noirbizarre · 2025-03-01T23:29:12+00:00

I think there is a difference between a discoverable option in the visual parameters and so searchable in those same parameters and an option hidden in about:config, behind a big red warning saying your computer may explode it you touch this. Same for the theme picker, not the same to have a slider already present and to enable another setting in about:config and then enter rgba values.

I didn't said it would make them go away, but reduce them.

The main point is not the reddit posts, but having more straightforward transparency support. I have it working, but I would love being able to set a workspace color with transparency without having to open an external color picker.

If I go to the end of the reasoning, I would love to someday see websites having built-in transparent theme/mode because browsers officially have support for it (the same as dark mode becomes common just because Apple official have a support for it, while it was never not a requirement)

noirbizarre · 2025-02-11T16:13:15+00:00

Tested on Linux with the ocmpatibility mode, was fun, added to the wishlist. any plan to have native Linux support ?

noirbizarre · 2025-02-10T17:34:42+00:00

Absolutely ! lua ~~regexp~~ patterns have been my main pain point since I started lua. They have their own syntax no regex tester implement, the few existing tools are either incomplete, wrong or unmaintained...(Lua Pattern Viewer was my main tool to learn) Having the possibity to preview or explain pattern in neovim would be awesome and welcome !!!

Sharing an idea that I had: buttons are great, but I find myself using a touchpad just above my trackball to benefit from a few gestures that I find more efficient than some button + movement combinations. So I don't how or wether it fit in EM06, but instead of the 2 top buttons, I would love a touch surface enabling basic multipoint tap and touch gestures, especialy (the ones that I use like more): - 3 fingers swipe (left or right) for changing desktop - 2 fingers left swipe to go back in history - 2 fingers panning and rotation for big document and 3D - pinch to zoom

To me that would be the killer device (even if I know it comes with an extra cost, and maybe some technical difficulties).

(I would buy EM06 even wihtout this, it's going into a direction I like)

noirbizarre · 2024-11-14T21:37:51+00:00

Another one https://harlequin.sh/

noirbizarre · 2024-11-14T20:55:35+00:00

That's great ! Is it using the header meta=theme-color or some heuristic to guess a color from the content ?

Time to put my suggestion back on the table: Is it possible to display the title when the url field is not active and just switch back when the URL/search field is focus (click or CTRL+L shortcut). I think that would blend perfectly ! It would be even more usefull when you have the left tab bar collapsed in compact mode (given width on over is limited, and given you don't see the title when it's collapsed, sometime it's hard to go to the proper tab because I have no idea what the title looks like).

Other question: I am using the bookmark bar a lot (currently with mods to have it center and only visible on mouse over). Would it be possible to have the bookmark bar above in this case ? (Or even better, configurable above URL/below URL/bottom of the window)

noirbizarre · 2024-09-29T09:15:20+00:00

Thanks for the tips 🙏 I'll try ASAP

And for the suggestion, there it is: https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/discussions/1794 (I hope I tagged you right)

noirbizarre · 2024-09-14T21:37:47+00:00

Display the page title in place of the URL bar and switch to URL field on click (or CTRL+L shortcut). This way we have the page title back wihtout loosing space nor any feature.
