Having a password manager is incredibly useful when someone dies and you need access to their accounts. I think bitwarden and probably others lets you grant emergency access to someone, definitely leaving it in my will.

Just moved from bitwarden to proton pass, so far so good. Would recommend keepass, bitwarden,1password but definitely not lastpass.

I kinda don’t trust em tbh.

I couldn't imagine not using a password manager anymore, so I'd certainly recommend it. At work we use 1Password, and I use NordPass privately. Both are great IMO.

Keepass with key file. I synchronise only the database with cloud servers while the key file stays on my devices and never gets synched. I think that's a good tradeoff for security and convenience.

Loving vaultwarden. Easy to share with family for passwords, great browser extension.

I use the paid version of bitwarden and would recommend it to anyone who can afford the subscription and two yubikeys.

I personally use pass, which uses gpg for encryption and can also use git repositories (I use it with my personal gitea instance).

Does anyone have recommendation for a password manager that works well on both mobile and desktop? I browse with Firefox and while Lockwise is integrated into Firefox now and works fine on desktop, it's kind of 'eh on mobile in my opinion. It "works" but I find it to be fairly clunky and a lot of the time I need to open the Firefox app and just find the password in there and paste it in.

Does any other application work better for transferring passwords made on desktop to mobile more seamlessly? Looking for better detection of the user/pass via app or website.

Keepass with syncthing is GOAT

I'm probably going to get grilled for this but I've Been using Firefox's Saved passwords, I really don't need anything better.

I use pass which is a frontend for GnuPG. It's sort of primitive and I had to write user interface for it but it's super flexible. Since every password is saved in encrypted file syncing is easy and we use Git to share company passwords amongst ourselves.

Yeah I use Lastpass, it's very useful. I'd like to switch to something FOSS and locally encrypted, but honestly I've tried a couple times and never got it working properly, meanwhile Lastpass always works. I hate their blinding white UI lol.

Anyone not using a password manager is shooting themselves in the foot and often time not realizing till its too late. Along with that sign up for a service that notifies you of data breaches, I think bitwarden has one built in (might only be for subscribing members though) and there is always https://haveibeenpwned.com/

Password managers are a great tool for digital hygiene. The main way an average Joe gets his accounts taken over is because it reused the same user and password combination.

It's kinda ridiculous that no one made better system for credentials, soma of requirements policies are ridiculous.

I would never use cloud services if not hosted on my server.

Keepass with custom sync is best option.

I recommend one. Try to get one without a subscription. I bought the pro version of Enpass before they put up a subscription wall, and I've been riding that one ever since.

KeePassDX with Synching to locally synchronize databases across devices.
