Just wondered what people are using for their password management.

I’m currently using 1Password on a family subscription for both password management and 2FA (and then Authy for the 1Password 2FA). But I’m seeing a lot more posters — particularly since joining Lemmy — championing BitWarden (either cloud or self hosted) and Raivo OTP as a cheaper, almost-as-functional alternative.

So is it worth the switch? Will I lose out on anything by doing so?

I’m currently running BitWarden with a free account to see if I can live with it. But I must admit, 1Password is a staple app for me and one that I would say is priceless to my workflow and setup.

Just interested in your thoughts and trying to stimulate conversation!

    How does it store them though? I thought (this was maybe long ago) they they were stored plaintext on your machine instead of in an encrypted vault like password managers.

      I’ll be honest, I have no idea how secure the firefox passwords are stored… maybe I should actually research this some more

      but I would hope Mozilla has a reasonably secure method in place
