What is the recomended password manager right now? Currently I still have google storing all my passwords but I'm working on degoogling so that will have to go at some point.
KeePass or something similar. Self-hosting your passwords is the only way, anything that uses servers that are not controlled by you is a no-go, in my opinion, no matter how secure your client is.
I would agree somewhat, except I think Bitwarden verifiably doesn't store unencrypted password data. Of course, I think that a self-hosted solution is pretty much always more secure than one that isn't, but the convenience Bitwarden provides is real.
"Convenience" as in there is no need to host anything? May be, but, yet again, I would like to know the exact physical location of my passwords, otherwise I'm not saving them there. Apart from that, I don't think there are any more "benefits".
