> - You have to keep track of n for every site.

I consider this far better than having to keep a password manager's database. n = 0 for the vast majority of sites without sensitive personal data. For the small handful that need to change, I usually sync them all to the same value of n about once or twice a year.

> - Not well-integrated with browsers.

I use Chrome's password-saving feature for websites that don't store sensitive personal data. For websites that I consider sensitive, I actually like that it isn't integrated with the browser.

> - Far less convenience on a phone.

This is true. If my laptop can act as a bluetooth keyboard to my phone it might make life easier.




At this point, couldn't you keep the list of domains/n's in a plain text file? You still don't have the master password.


Re:Bluetooth I use AirDroid for this. It works as a vnc client not as a Bluetooth keyboard.
