Yes. 1Password. If and when they fuck up, I'm going self-hosted.

What's wrong with dashlane? Been using it for years, really don't want to take the effort to move to bitwarden or whatever the flavor of the month is...

I really like bitwarden personally. Its open source and works pretty well for my needs

[–] flatpandisk@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, it saves on the odd site I use once a year and trying to have to remember that.

Went LastPass (avoid) -> 1Password -> Bitwarden. Pretty happy with BW, as it has reasonable integrations on Android. Prior to that, i was using a UNIX tool called "pass", which used GPG and allow some degree of organization. I still use it for some stuff.

I've used Keepass or Keepass XC for years. They are great!

And, since KP is offline, you don't have the same security risks as the cloud hosted password managers. If you were really paranoid, you could put your KP database file on a USB so it's never online.

Plus, even if someone were to somehow acquire a current version of your database file, it's heavily encrypted. By the time they crack it you should've changed your passwords anyway.

I’ve been using Bitwarden for years and also use the Apple password manager on my phone and iPad so I have a copy in case something happens.

I also keep some less sensitive work passwords on chrome because I don’t want to open Bitwarden at work.

[–] zerotime@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I would not recommend cloud based password manager. We all know what happened to LastPass. But locally encrypted ones are great. I love to use KeePassXC.

I think it's almost necessary. I only have to remember one password now. Bitwarden has apps/extensions on basically any device/browser I've used that integrate well with auto-fill. It was weird not being able to "know" my passwords originally, but it's great not ever having to remember which variant of a password I might have used. Plus, you can easily share some accounts with people easily and it's just seamless (a lot of IoT devices only work with a single account for example).

Since i started using KeypassX, My memory just got worse

[–] SpaghettiYeti@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I use Dashlane and I'm generally happy with it, plus you get a VPN for free.

But so many people use bitwarden it seems. Anyone use both and have a comparison?

They should be a hard requirement to anyone that wants to access the internet by now. Although the ones built-in to the operating system such as Gnome keyring, Kwallet, Windows Credential Manager and Apple Keychain are OK, the third party ones are 100% better.

Personally I use KeepassXC and just have it synced across different devices via Syncthing. While I also keep weekly backup copies (without the Key file) on Mega with it zipped and password protected.

[–] guybrush@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

KeePassX(C?) both on Windows and Linux. I used the windows version KeePass2 but there was a recent security vulnerability in it so I switched to KeePassX. Maybe it's already patched... auto-type doesn't seem to work in KeePassX on Windows so I might switch back but it's not that critical.

So apparently I'm alone in using RememBear...

Been using it and I like it 🤷‍♂️

Keypass is my ninja. I'm never not using a password manager.

[–] SharkyPants@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I would recommend one but I have always been wery about sending password data through the internet to be stored on some companies server. So I put in the effort to host my own Vaultwarden docker instance through TrueNas scale (True charts) on my home server and access it via a VPN tunnel (Wireguard). It's very complicated to setup compared to a web service but this way I own all of my password data locally. The android app (Bitwarden) works alright but sometimes it has trouble understanding what is a login screen and you have to force fill things. Vaultwarden as a docker instance works great. The only time this setup needs to be on VPN is to save a new password. Using existing passwords seem to be cached on my device.

1Password all the way. Holds my passwords and all of my 2FA codes. I understand it’s a single point of failure but I’m comfortable with their architecture and I don’t feel like self hosting stuff.

[–] xb4r7x@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Absolutely worth it. It's the only way to actually adhere to password best practices.

[–] BattleGrown@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've been using Microsoft authenticator for work, and since it was there I also started using it for my personal accounts and passwords as well. It works well enough, never had any issues.
