Okay so yesterday, I changed my password as a precaution because of the hack, and just now I decided to clean my browser tabs and re login and almost forgot my password. I'm done dealing with passwords.
What password manager do you recommend?
Features Iβm looking for
-Open Source
-Can be synced to cloud (I donβt want self host)
-Can be accessed via a browser
-Cross platform, the more platforms, the better
-End to End Encrypted, and Encrypted at rest on my device, also need some way to authenticate before releasing the password, like a pin or biometrics
-Autofill for browser and apps
-Free (can be a freemium model, but I need the base tier to be free, too broke to spend money on this lol)
-Can export the passwords to a file
I never used a password manager before so sorry if I seem like a noob.
I know I could google it, but I want the lastest info, not some outdated reddit post.
Edit: Woah, those replies are fast. I think I'll use Bitwarden. Thanks for recommendations! Now I don't need to worry about forgetting passwords anymore. π
Edit 2: It seems I've forgotten my email password as well as a few other accounts I haven't logged into for a while. Damn, should've used a password manager earlier.
Bitwarden, self hosted.
+1 for Bitwarden here. One day I will go down the self-hosted route.
I have the server, just dont trust myself enough to cut the cord from BW servers.
Ah, you like living on the edge π
I don't trust automated Docker updates... There can be breaking changes between versions. I don't want my Docker containers to automatically break themselves :D

Yeah, there's a lot to be said for letting the hosting be done by people who know what they're doing.
If I may, what are the requirements to make it self hosted?
@skullgiver @speaker_hat I'm considering spinning up a VW server right now. Thanks for laying out the reqs!
How do you make the sever available via the Internet? Do you host it on a cloud provider (e.g. AWS EC2)? or do you self host on your own bare metal machine?

A cheap <$20/year VPS is sufficient to host Vaultwarden. No need to spend several times that. My Vaultwarden installation is only using 120MB RAM, so a 1GB RAM VPS would be more than sufficient. Take a look at RackNerd, HostHatch, GreenCloudVPS, and the other top providers on LowEndTalk. RackNerd's latest sale has a VPS plan with 1GB RAM and 14GB SSD storage for $11.38/year: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/186994/boom-boom-4th-of-july-deals-come-come-deals-freebies-by-racknerd, but I'd personally go with the 4GB RAM and 75GB disk for $47.88/year, since self-hosting is addictive and you'll find plenty of other stuff you want to host.

Given the prices of these VPSes, you could get two or three with different providers and have a warm standby in case of any issues.
RackNerd is legit though - a real company with a physical office. I've had some VPSes with them in the past, and only got rid of them because I wanted to consolidate a few things.
Look up "Vaultwarden"
