    KeePassXC here. Locally encrypted, Locally stored, cloud backup of an encrypted file, synced with SyncThing to mobile devices. I will never trust nor recommend a cloud based manager with all the breaches.

      Yeah, KeePassXC + SyncThing all day every day. Can’t in good conscience trust someone else with my sensitive data, even if I encrypt it before it gets to their servers. My database is keys-to-the-kingdom level shit.

    Bitwarden all day every day. I don’t even know any of my passwords because they’re all randomly generated. Try to guess my password now hacker man

    Everyone should be using a password manager. Every service should have a different password (and some service should have several passwords) and it’s impossible for the average person to keep track of all of those. Every time I hear about someone losing control of an account it’s because they were using the same password as another service.

    I recommend:

    • KeePassDX: Can be completely offline. Probably the most secure but can be a little awkward to use sometimes.
    • Bitwarden: Cloud based but open source. You could run a server but the main service offers MOST of the features for free.

    Your mileage may very with some of the proprietary platforms. However my job uses 1 Password and it seems to be fairly safe.

    A password manager is an absolute must, in my opinion! I use Bitwarden and love it.

    It’s 1Password for me. Looks good, works good and is available for every platform that I use.

    For work I use KeepasXC and Bitwarden+Vaultwarden as well.

    I use 1password. I heard that Apple uses 1password internally. I figure their IT guys are more expert than me, a random internet dude. So I chose 1password. Works great on desktop, mobile, and even Linux. Family plan is a good deal. You can even share passwords between users for common things like bank accounts, etc, between family members.

    Trust no one. Not because you’re paranoid, but because you don’t need to.

    Trust no one and just use KeePassXC.

      So you trust the KeePassXC developers. Im also using KeePassXC, but saying “trust no one” is BS. Except you audited the code yourself, which I doubt.

    Started with LastPass, used it for 10 years. Switched to Bitwarden a while ago, would never go back.

    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 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.

    Using different passwords for different services protects you against data leaks opening attack vectors for all your services as well as malicious actors using your passwords like that as well as phishing impact.

    A password manager is a must for reasonable security.

    I use keepass. Local DB file with Master password. No hosted service or Browser extension is another layer of protection, of risk reduction. I manually copy/sync the DB file via cloud storage as a backup and for mobile use.

    I use Browser password storage selectively. The most critical stuff definitely only belongs into my memory and password database.

    Using a password manager was a game changer for me and I recommend it to everyone. I use both Bitwarden and 1Password. I find Bitwarden to run better on Android and 1Password better on iOS. But both are the best password managers in my opinion.

      That’s weird. I was using iOS some time ago and I figured Bitwarden is way more smooth on iOS than android
