I'm using KeePass currently, since I don't really want to use anything publicly hosted. But I was curious to see what other people have been using!

I use 1password, I used KeePass for years but it didn't work will on Android so I moved on.

Also using 1Password, works great for what my family needs.

I just lead the migration from LastPass to 1Password for the business I work at. It was really prompted by the breaches at LP and their poor handling of it. For personal stuff, I just did whatever I was doing at work because the business plans come with free licenses for personal accounts.

I use OneNote, with a bunch of coded words that mean other things and mix and match those to make longer passwords that are all different. Because I'm too lazy for a real app, and this is secure enough and useful enough.

Self hosted Bitwarden is the bees knees.

Keepass on OneDrive, so I can access it from my computer and phone.

Vaultwarden for work, KeePass and KeePassDroid for private use.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Bitwarden. I left LastPass about 3 years ago and haven’t looked back. I pay for bitwarden so I can use the TOTP feature and because i can’t wrap my head around the recovery process for my wife if something were to happen to me. I think another, more technically fluent human will need to be involved if that ever comes to pass.

KeePassXC and Nextloud to sync things between devices…

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Bitwarden, I use it everywhere. I even wrote a Bitwarden app for my Linux phone.

Using Keeper at the moment. I used to use 1password, then moved to Bitwarden. Using keeper now because my employer has licensing to give each employee a personal account and a business account for free. So, basically I'm just taking advantage of that.

Dashlane. I need a service where I can share/manage things for my elderly parents, and Dashlane is easier for that after LastPass became a dumpster fire

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Bitwarden. I used to use LastPass but got terrified of their security.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I've started using Bitwarden after two of my coworkers quit to go work at Bitwarden. Really nice interface, and very easy to use

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (5 children)

I use pass but recommend Bitwarden when people ask for a recommendation.
When using pass, if you have a lot of devices and forget to sync at times you better know at least basic git lol.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I use pass as well and acknowledge it's not for everyone. For me, the lack of automatic synchronization is a feature though, I don't feel comfortable having all my passwords on my phone in case it gets stolen.

  • Bitwarden for my Passwords.
  • Keepass for my password for Bitwarden.
  • An master password + picture(key) combination for access to my keepass.

Enpass. I sync my vault with my Nextcloud, but it would also work completely offline or with direct-sync between my devices.

Maybe a tangent, but what are the security implications of a password manager? It seems like it would replace many individual things that can go kinda wrong with one big single point of failure, which frightens me 😆

Happy to be wrong though. They definitely seem convenient.
