My name is Lanedirt and I’m a software developer with over 15 years of experience and a privacy enthusiast. Since 2013, I've been running a public temporary email service (https://spamok.com), but I wanted to build something more privacy-centric and fully self-hostable. That's why I've spent the last year developing AliasVault from scratch. The idea behind AliasVault is simple: create unique, random identities for every website, protecting your privacy and reducing online tracking and profiling.
Key Features:
- Unique identities & passwords: Generate individual aliases and strong passwords for every site.
- Built-in email server: Create email aliases with your own domains, receive and read emails directly in AliasVault—no external dependencies.
- Zero-knowledge encryption: All data encrypted locally (using Argon2Id and AES-256-GCM); your master password never leaves your device.
- Flexible installation: Docker-based self-hosting, supports Linux VMs and ARM devices (like Raspberry Pi).
- Fully Open-source: Free to use, audit, modify, under the MIT license.
I've just released v0.14.0, which adds:
- Built-in support for Google Authenticator-compatible TOTP code generation.
- Official browser extensions now approved and live in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari (macOS), and Brave app stores for easy access to your credentials, email aliases and allows for one-click alias creation.
