BitWarden
Bitwarden, I use it everywhere. I even wrote a Bitwarden app for my Linux phone.
chad activities
I've been happy with Bitwarden thus far. Used Lastpass back in the day, but migrated over when the renewal prices started creeping up.
KeePassXC and Nextloud to sync things between devices…
Fellow keepass user here
Keepass xc with syncthing
same here, KeePassXC + syncthing on desktop and KeePassDX + syncthing on android. I also run a second syncthing instance on desktop in read only mode that makes backups to my cloud
same, until keepassdx had problems on my samsung phone, at least for a while, so i swapped it out for keepass2android
Funny, I had keepass2droid but had issues and swapped to KeePassDX
keepassxc for linux, keepassdx for android
I know a bunch of people here have mentioned Bitwarden, but I would like to mention one feature that makes it superior to all others. You can integrate it to services like SimpleLogin, AnonAddy, Firefox Relay, DDG etc. and auto-generate email aliases within the Bitwarden extension. In theory it is more secure to not do this but it is such a huge QoL feature to just hit the randomize button in the extension to create an alias for a new login. It also populates the info field on simplelogin with something along the lines of "Auto-Generated by Bitwarden for: [website]"
I started using Bitwarden a few years ago and it's been excellent.
I use Bitwarden in all my devices. Never gave me a reason to look for anything else.
KeepassXC on PC
KeepassDX on Android
The database is synced between devices with syncthing (selfhosted, stuff is synced using wifi) so my database is not uploaded to the internet
Same. Everyone is sleeping on syncthing.
+1 1Password (coming from LastPass) this manager is really great. Good mobile, desktop and browser support.
Been with 1Password for a few years now, coming from LostPassword. I feel it strikes a balance with the whole being secure and being convenient.
I use 1password, I used KeePass for years but it didn't work will on Android so I moved on.
Also using 1Password, works great for what my family needs.
1Password is a genuine life saver.
Keepass is great, use it at work.
1Password for my personal stuff
Lastpass has had too many leaks / issues for me to ever trust them again
1Password because we’re an Apple household (aside from my work laptop, and even then it’s easy enough to use through the web interface). The main thing that irks me about it is that they keep offering discounts for new subscribers but longtime users have to keep paying the full price. But I’ve been considering switching to Proton for email, and they’re in the process of rolling out a password manager that seems similar so I may be switching to that sooner rather than later.
Another very happy 1Password user here!
I switched my workplace to 1Password and I moved from Dashlane at the same time. One thing that's nice about 1P from that perspective is that our plan gives everyone a free personal account that they could take with them if they left the company (they'd have to pay for it themselves at that point of course).
Usability is the best of any password manager I've used, but the killer feature for us as a development team was the flexibility. Being able to assign the same credentials to multiple URLs (e.g. dev, stage, QA, prod) was just not possible with everything else we looked at the time.
1password is the only one I trust
Yeah, bitwarden rules
Kepass (and Keepass2Android) + Nextcloud instances to keep sync and backups
KeepassXC on desktop and KeepassDX on android. Sync with Nextcloud. Its great. Smooth as silk since I stopped messing with Nextcloud.
ditto! But considering self hosting vaultwarden instead, Nextcloud can be a bit of a hassle to maintain ...
Nextcloud is not so bad when installed as a snap. Though it limits some customization.
I tried bitwarden a while ago, but I've been on Keepass for almost 10 years now and a lot of my custom fields don't line up with anything in bitwarden. It was a bit messy. I still recommend bitwarden for anyone looking to start using a password manager.
I use KeePassXC in my linux desktop, KeePassDX in my android smartphone and syncthing-fork/syncthing to sync modifications between all devices. The encrypted database (long passphrase generated with Diceware method) never goes online. I also use yubikeys and multi factor auth for all important accounts
