I personally use Firefox's built-in password manager and it works great for me. I use Relay to generate email masks and enter in random passwords that are saved and synced across my devices. It's been very helpful!

1password family user here. I cringe nowadays when people still try to remember their passwords and accounts and say they have a "good" system. It's a necessity nowadays. Sounds like the consensus favorite around here is Bitwarden. Anyone wanna tell why they prefer it over 1password? Is it because it's self-hostable?

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.

There are a lot of people recommending a very specific program in this thread. Be skeptical, everyone. Do your research on the strengths and weaknesses of these types of tools, and the specific offerings of all current leading services.

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/

Keepass with syncthing is GOAT

I don't use them. I see this as a putting all eggs in one basket strategy, if my master password was lost, hacked, hosting company shutdown, or for whatever reason refuse to do business with me, my entire life would be screwed.

Instead I use long passwords made of words, and for each site it will be a few letters off. They're easy for humans to remember because how similar they are, but due how hash works they are equivalent to unique passwords to hackers.

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.

I would love to use one, but to be honest, I have not found one that I trust, so far.

The perfect "password manager" would require 2FA, has some kind of "online backup" (cloud) that I can host myself and has to be open source. So far nothing really seems to offer all this.

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.

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.

I toss my KeePass file (encrypted database) in Google Drive.

That way I have all the convenience of syncing through the cloud, but I also get the benefit of having my database access and database storage be managed by separate companies.

If Google has a breach and my data gets leaked, sucks, but the database is encrypted so I’m good. If KeePass encryption is broken, sucks, but attackers would also have to find a way to gain access to my Google Drive.

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.

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.

I kinda don’t trust em tbh.

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.

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

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

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.
