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.

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

It's a must.

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.

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

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.

KeePassX(C?) both on Windows and Linux. I used the windows version KeePass2 but there was a recent security vulnerability in it so I switched to KeePassX. Maybe it's already patched... auto-type doesn't seem to work in KeePassX on Windows so I might switch back but it's not that critical.

I’ve been using Bitwarden for years and also use the Apple password manager on my phone and iPad so I have a copy in case something happens.

I also keep some less sensitive work passwords on chrome because I don’t want to open Bitwarden at work.

I've used Keepass or Keepass XC for years. They are great!

And, since KP is offline, you don't have the same security risks as the cloud hosted password managers. If you were really paranoid, you could put your KP database file on a USB so it's never online.

Plus, even if someone were to somehow acquire a current version of your database file, it's heavily encrypted. By the time they crack it you should've changed your passwords anyway.

Using Bitwarden here. All is good but sometimes the auto-fill feature doesn't work well.

I've been using 1password ever since it was first released on iOS and I gotta say it's awesome! Whatever you use, stay far away from Lastpass ... they are a security nightmare.

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.

Good. Used keepass for years, also useful for storing other confidential info. Put the app & vault in one cloud storage, key file in another and you’re synced across multiple computers, add an app for your phone and you’re good to go and surely reasonable secure providing you use a long password too.
