They are great:

  1. Convenience - no more forgot password because of arbitrary condition of having two digits and min. 16 characters etc.
  2. Security - when db leaks and somehow the service you registered for wasn't hashing passwords properly, it's just random set of characters instead of combination of email and password you probably use for a lot of other things.

I use SafeInCloud, compatible with all the operaring systems I use and I only had to pay a one time fee of 5 dollars (if I remember correctly).

I'm using KeePassXC and syncing the db over cloud storage, but sometimes updating the db gets tricky if it is contemporary opened on more devices, one instance in each different app (e.g. mobile and desktop at the same time, db stored on nextcloud/GDrive/OneDrive or even just synced over syncthing). I'd prefer the apps would simply access the db like the FF Extension does, while the db file is opened only by a single server, always running app somewhere reachable.

That's why I'm also always thinking about maybe I should switch to Bitwarden, which is equally reliable as security goes and even more usable, but then I get a bit off put the SaaS nature of it, and its limitations too, for instance even the paid tier has only 1GB of storage space, while I use KeepassXC as vault to store a lot of legal documents too, which in time could easily gets to 1GB, but on the other hand its server nature approach makes it a lot more usable on the user end.

I use one on desktop. For me as pong as the passwords are stored locally or at least end to end encrypted if stored online, then its secure enough. Assuming that the master password is secure.

Love dashlane.

[-] nopsurfer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, they should be used. KeepassXC FTW

There's an exploit that will dump all you passwords as raw text as a feature

can you elaborate?

I use bitwarden, and have a random password for every account. Moreso I also have a random email for each service I sign up for, using Cloudflare email routes.

It gives me the peace of mind that when one account is compromised I just reset the password, in case of spam: change the email address, and continue on with my day.

For work I use KeePass and 1password, but I do prefer Bitwarden due to its price. 1Password is more feature rich with it's types of credentials you can store, however. It's a nice-to-have that I can store TOTP as well and that I can share passwords with my partner

I love my 1Password. Super easy to use and clean interface. I like the fact that I can use a family account and easily share account passwords within 1Password with my family. No need to send a password over Signal or Whatsapp. I 've recently also installed ProtonPass as I do love the Proton products. It is missing some key features for me right now (e.g. credit cards, Wifi, passports) but I can see it becoming my go to password manager in the future. Super easy to migrate over from 1Password and other password managers as well.

I really recommend Bitwarden.

I have been using proton pass. Enjoying it so far
