Yes. 1Password. If and when they fuck up, I'm going self-hosted.
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?
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.
I really like bitwarden personally. Its open source and works pretty well for my needs
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...
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.
Started with Bitwarden years ago, then I used 1password for a few months and now I'm using Keepassxc (Keepass2Android on my phone).
And I recommend everyone to use one. Not necessarily Keepass if they are not very tech savy (database synchronization can be a little bit tricky but not hard). Bitwarden was good too but Keepassxc supports adding ssh keys which is a big plus for me.
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.
Yes, it saves on the odd site I use once a year and trying to have to remember that.
Since i started using KeypassX, My memory just got worse
Bitwarden all day
Keeper is a fantastic zero knowledge password manager. Once I started using keeper, I never looked back.
So apparently I'm alone in using RememBear...
Been using it and I like it 🤷♂️
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).
Keypass is my ninja. I'm never not using a password manager.
