no way!!!! I searched for a long time for a solution like this, many could encrypt using shamir but none took an actual file with browser upload and easy UX. and like, 14 years ago? my hats down to you my friend.

my zip bundles are 1-2 megabytes due to all the wasm, and you achieved this on so little. impressive job!

I'd love to hear what you think about mine, one of the differences is that it creates a ZIP file containing the recovery app in it, as well as a PDF with instructions for non-technical friends. Overall trying to make the recovery experience as smooth as possible.

but cheers, your version is the only one that I found that does basically what mine does, all the others fall short one way or another!

I wonder how many thousands or millions of useful projects are so well hidden that they are effectively nonexistent.

you know, I've always thought that "If I know I have something... somewhere, but I don't know where that thing is is, I have effectively lost it"

I agree with the sentiment, and the specific wording of your comment made me want to link to the classic bash.org quote[0] which has consistently been in the top 5 for a long time, but I just learned that we lost bash.org... :(
