I use 1Password atm, but want to switch either to Proton or something selfhosted.
I’m going to suggest the lessor known option, Enpass, I’ve used it for maybe eight years? I paid a one off fee at the time. It’s multi platform, windows, iOS, Linux etc. It has browser plugins, there’s a Flatpak option so it’s handy for my Linux distrohopping. It supports passkeys and one time codes and you can store the data in any cloud you want…
Been using the Firefox password manager ever since I’ve been using Firefox on all devices. Used Firefox clockwise before that. Planning to switch to a self hosted vaultwarden+bitwarden setup. Any guides or pointers are welcome.
Bitwarden all day every day. I don’t even know any of my passwords because they’re all randomly generated. Try to guess my password now hacker man
yup randomly generated 20+ digit passwords are the way to go
I use Bitwarden!! It’s great cause I have a long complicated password to access the vault (my phone will do it by fingerprint though) but it’s the only password I need to actually memorize. Don’t know how someone can be secure without one nowadays, way too many services
Bitwarden didn’t work perfectly fine for me. Proton pass does.
KeePassXC here. Locally encrypted, Locally stored, cloud backup of an encrypted file, synced with SyncThing to mobile devices. I will never trust nor recommend a cloud based manager with all the breaches.
This is the way.
Yeah, KeePassXC + SyncThing all day every day. Can’t in good conscience trust someone else with my sensitive data, even if I encrypt it before it gets to their servers. My database is keys-to-the-kingdom level shit.
Oh yeah, someone, finally :D KeepassXC on PC, KeepassDX on Android, Syncthing for synchronization. I like when my password is just one file, that I can easily backup, not some cloud thing 🙂
This is the way.
A password manager is an absolute must, in my opinion! I use Bitwarden and love it.
Everyone should be using a password manager. Every service should have a different password (and some service should have several passwords) and it’s impossible for the average person to keep track of all of those. Every time I hear about someone losing control of an account it’s because they were using the same password as another service.
I recommend:
- KeePassDX: Can be completely offline. Probably the most secure but can be a little awkward to use sometimes.
- Bitwarden: Cloud based but open source. You could run a server but the main service offers MOST of the features for free.
Your mileage may very with some of the proprietary platforms. However my job uses 1 Password and it seems to be fairly safe.
Bitwarden, all the way.
Password manager-less life with notebooks and reused passwords is life in the stone age. If you or anyone you know isn’t using one, get on bitwarden.
Everyone knows why password manageras are absolutely essential, but here’s an often neglected perk: I can list every site I ever signed up to. Wanna delete some old accounts? “Did you sign up to X yet?” Simples.
Yes, do it! Now! It’s the safest way, but only by choosing the right and trusted ones. Examples:
- The expensive but good one: 1Password
- The free, geeky and difficult one for normal users: Keepass.
- The simple and free and beloved one: Bitwarden
- The don’t try it ever because they will leak your data: Lastpass.
The simple and free and beloved one
You’re not giving Bitwarden much credit here. It’s really great.
Bitwarden is really great imo.
Selfhosting it is even better

I use keepass synced with internxt. Works so so , but internxt will hopefully improve
Check out Syncthing. It works pretty painlessly.
Thanks completely forgot about it , used it a few years back and had some issues. Seems to work great now :)
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.
I’m in the Bitwarden camp. There is no other way for me to have complex/secure passwords and remember them for my gazillion accounts.
I use Bitwarden!
I like that I can share password with my team. :)
