    Bitwarden. It’s free, open-srouce, you can even self-host your own instance… or pay 10$/year! for the full support. The free version has everything you will ever need.

        It’s an excellent password manager. I love it!

        I pay for Bitwarden premium and the big thing for me is the ability to use it for 2FA/TOTP right from the browser extension (for sites where I feel convenience mostly trumps hardened security). It’s glorious that Bitwarden autofills username and password, and then auto-copies the current 2FA code to your clipboard so you can just paste it immediately, instead of needing to pull up your phone and authenticator app to fetch a code, or check your email/texts for a code.

          Proton has a similar feature (not sure if it’s part of free or premium as I subscribed for proton ultimate so it just came with Proton Pass). It’s honestly crazy how nice having TOTP right in the extension for the account’s entry in the manager.

          Also, I realize this is like the third time I’ve made a comment about Proton, so I’m probably gonna stop before folks think I’m like a shill or something.

        It’s insane to think that people think of that as cheap. It’s … adequate. Clearly enough to run a company that can support it and further develop it, all the infrastructure, etc. Somehow all other companies convinced us that it should be okay to pay $10 per month or more for the most basic of services, where until now their revenue per user was maybe $0.5/month for the biggest users (ad watchers).

        $10 per year is what the vast majority of subscriptions should cost - they’d still make plenty of money, but it’s just not enough for them when they know they can nickle and dime you for more.

        I know of MFA being allowed on it when you go premium, and I think it allows a collection, so you can have a shared collection of passwords with someone else. It’s been really handy for my wife and I, especially for things like bank and apartment logins.

        You can share passwords with other people, you get 1gb of attachments space disk (to store important documents, recovery keys, crypto wallet, etc), you have access to many reports that will tell you what password might have leaked, weak password and whatnot.

    The Firefox password manager can be secured with a master password that encrypts everything in your browser password store. Believe it’s pretty secure if you set this password otherwise it’s almost akin to having passwords stored in plain text.

    +1 for bitwarden

      It’s encrypted over Firefox Sync though, regardless of if you set a master password.

      The master password is only needed if you don’t have complete physical security (or your machine is hacked)

      Curious if OP was more interested in how secure the Sync feature is vs the manager itself. Sync requires trusting that Mozilla aren’t the bad guys.

    IMO yes. It’s stored encrypted on their sync service, and you can additionally encrypt it locally too by setting a master password in FF settings.

    Didn’t notice any mention that you can actually self host Firefox’s browser sync service yourself. Personally haven’t tried, but IIRC there’s setup docs on Mozilla’s github

    I wouldn’t use any browser password manager, last time I even looked at one they were saving my passwords in plaintext!

    Bitwarden, one pass, keepass, basically anything other than LastPass should be good!

      without a master password, firefox just uses a simple scheme it can reverse. if you use a master password, though, then that password is needed.

      chromium browsers now use windows credentials, if you have no password on a local windows account, then none is needed to extract the passwords from the browser. .

      It seems I’m not up-to-date. What’s wrong with LastPass?

      Edit: nevermind. I just googled it. [https://www.notebookcheck.com/Ist-LastPass-noch-sicher-Experten-kritisieren-den-Passwortmanager.677484.0.html)(url) Here is an article about it (in German), for anyone else wondering.

      Seems like I will have to find a way to move my vault to another password manager. I hope I can find a way of doing this safely without needing to do that manually… So I am grateful for any advice!

        Most viruses now start off by scooping up all saved browser passwords automatically then sending them to a remote server. So if one of those ever goes off on your system you are at quite a risk. Especially since there are really good other options that aren’t vulnerable to that

      I use Bitwarden and, though all the features are very nice (self hosted Vaultwarden), the clients are really bad. The autofill is super inconsistent on Android. The app takes 20s+ to load on my Pixel 3a. You can’t trigger a sync from the quick autofill menu, you have to open the full app. The “desktop app” is just an embedded browser. I really want to like it, but it doesn’t make it easy.

        I agree with most of your points although the android app is fast for me. The autofill isn’t great I must stress.

        The windows app and autofill need an overhaul.

        Not sure what you mean about no autofill on android, it definitely pops up on login fields for me and quickly lets me login with biometrics and then gives me my account. I only ever need to open up the app when I need to force it to sync if I’d just added a login on a different device and it hasn’t synced yet.

    I personally switched from it to Keepass, it is cross-platform, open-source and pretty secure. It doesn’t come with cloud support, but I guess you could just put the file in some sort of cloud storage you trust. It also supports one-time authentication codes!

      The big downside of this is when you need to log in to some web site when being away from your computer.

      Then you have to transfer your entire database to some other computer and make sure it’s deleted afterwards in a secure way. Much more risky than using Bitwarden I believe.

      I guess you can skip the deletion part if you trust there is no way to decrypt the db file in the future.

        On the rare occasion I need that, I just run KeePassDX Portable from a flash drive.

        But really it’s a bit risky to use any password manager on a device you don’t control.

        At least my KeePass database is secured with my YubiKey so it’s not likely anyone will get in if they do stumble onto my DB file.

        Context: KeepassXC is the Linux/macOS port of Keepass. Although it is handled by a different team, it isn’t significantly different from the Windows app.

          This is just bad information.

          It’s also on windows and yes it has more features like totp compared to keepass. It’s much more actively developed and has been audited.

            It’s also on windows and yes it has more features like totp compared to keepass.

            Technically true, but the main focus is being on more platforms than just Windows. From their site:

            Why KeePassXC instead of KeePass?

            KeePass is a very proven and feature-rich password manager and there is nothing fundamentally wrong with it. However, it is written in C# and therefore requires Microsoft’s .NET platform. On systems other than Windows, you can run KeePass using the Mono runtime libraries, but you won’t get the native look and feel which you are used to.

            KeePassXC, on the other hand, is developed in C++ and runs natively on Linux, macOS and Windows giving you the best-possible platform integration.

            Also, vanilla Keepass has totp.
