Firefox Flatpak & KeepassXC Flatpak with native messaging

I stumbled upon this quite old guide on how to run the KeepassXC binary within the Firefox container, which allows the Extension to work.

This is a very strange idea, as the core idea of using a dedicated PasswordManager is that a browser exploit doesnt leak any passwords, here it would be in the same container.

Some things I found

It looks like the native messaging portal may be finished soon.

Well… you already found all things, what is your question?

I wrote the guide you’ve linked, but for now, I’d also wait for native integration as that should be less buggy and less fragile/prone to break than the workarounds.
