I don't but I should even though my threat level is zero.
But then isn't a single point of failure a problem? I guess we use these to make life easier with strong passwords, but what if the cloud with sync gets leaked, or someone keylogs my pass manager then I lose all passwords not just those incidentally affected by a leak or hack?
Since i started using KeypassX, My memory just got worse
I've been using Safe In Cloud since 2012. I like it a lot.
I really like bitwarden personally. Its open source and works pretty well for my needs
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 just use the chrome password manager, works great and seamlessly transitions from Android to desktop. I used to use KeePass, but the convenience of the built in tools in chrome just works really well, especially after moving over from iOS.
Using Bitwarden here. All is good but sometimes the auto-fill feature doesn't work well.
As the rest of this thread seems to be saying, yeah Bitwarden seems to be the way to go. I've been using it for years and it's way too convenient not to have (not to mention the security benefits).
I don't use a PM because I'm too paranoid about losing access to it (hardware failure, file corruption), thus losing access to all accounts it protects. I end up writing down my passwords on paper. Not the full thing, just a personal reminder.
The real irony is that an "easily stolen" piece of paper is safer than anything i leave on my computer or phone
Absolutely worth it. It's the only way to actually adhere to password best practices.
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.
Keypass is my ninja. I'm never not using a password manager.
Bitwarden.
Currently a Bitwarden user at both home & at work. Picked up some Teams licenses for my department earlier this year - Password Managers are absolute essentials for next of kin & for successors at work.
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.
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.
Self custody is something you need to keep in practice. I use keepassXC everywhere.
I use gpg to encrypt my passwords with my public key. Benefit is that adding credentials to a new file doesn't require me to type the master password (password for private key). I trust gpg the most for security.
Password Store + OpenKeychain with syncing using git (forgejo) works very well for me
It's a must.
