Absolutely necessary In the current times. Be it for peace of mind or to free space in the mind. I've been using Bitwarden for over 5 years and I will never look back. The only password I know is the master password of the vault and don't have to worry about the tens of other stored in there.

The yourselves a favour and just go for it. It will be a million times better.

I pay for 1Password for families. Everyone except one person uses it. The person who doesn't use it is always getting locked out of his accounts....

I also use 1Password to store what information I've given a website. That's come in handy when I've needed to change my phone number, email, or credit card.

They should be a hard requirement to anyone that wants to access the internet by now. Although the ones built-in to the operating system such as Gnome keyring, Kwallet, Windows Credential Manager and Apple Keychain are OK, the third party ones are 100% better.

Personally I use KeepassXC and just have it synced across different devices via Syncthing. While I also keep weekly backup copies (without the Key file) on Mega with it zipped and password protected.

As the rest of this thread seems to be saying, yeah Bitwarden seems to be the way to go. I've been using it for years and it's way too convenient not to have (not to mention the security benefits).

I know a lot of people are saying Bitwarden, but I've been using 1Password for 4 years and Bitwarden just isn't a viable replacment.

1Password looks much more modern and their organizational tools are not present at all in Bitwarden. I can't even sort by date created or modified in Bitwarden.

Not using a password manager is like not having locks on a house. Everyone should have one and if you don't, you're risking a lot of valuable stuff being taken from you.

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.

Adding generic attachments to a KeePass vault has come in handy.

Currently a Bitwarden user at both home & at work. Picked up some Teams licenses for my department earlier this year - Password Managers are absolute essentials for next of kin & for successors at work.

[-] BattleGrown@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I've been using Microsoft authenticator for work, and since it was there I also started using it for my personal accounts and passwords as well. It works well enough, never had any issues.

KeePassDX with Synching to locally synchronize databases across devices.

[-] tudisco@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I appreciate Enpass because it allows me to decide where my data is stored while simultaneously synchronizing across all my devices. It's quite impressive. Now, they have incorporated Wi-Fi sync, which eliminates the need for cloud-based synchronization.

1Password all the way. Holds my passwords and all of my 2FA codes. I understand it’s a single point of failure but I’m comfortable with their architecture and I don’t feel like self hosting stuff.

[-] flatpandisk@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, it saves on the odd site I use once a year and trying to have to remember that.

[-] nonfuinoncuro@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

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...

Since i started using KeypassX, My memory just got worse

[-] Sterben@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I started with mSecure for a short time, than switched to 1Password.

Lastly, I turned to Bitwarden which is open source too. I used the free version for a while, but then I paid 10$ for the premium version (mainly to support the team).

I tried NordPass, but Bitwarden it is just objectively better and cheaper.

Now all my logins have random password, additionally I have input my DuckDuckGo API Key to generate random alias within Bitwarden.

[-] xb4r7x@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Absolutely worth it. It's the only way to actually adhere to password best practices.

[-] SharkyPants@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I would recommend one but I have always been wery about sending password data through the internet to be stored on some companies server. So I put in the effort to host my own Vaultwarden docker instance through TrueNas scale (True charts) on my home server and access it via a VPN tunnel (Wireguard). It's very complicated to setup compared to a web service but this way I own all of my password data locally. The android app (Bitwarden) works alright but sometimes it has trouble understanding what is a login screen and you have to force fill things. Vaultwarden as a docker instance works great. The only time this setup needs to be on VPN is to save a new password. Using existing passwords seem to be cached on my device.

Keeper is a fantastic zero knowledge password manager. Once I started using keeper, I never looked back.
