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!

      It’s personal preference of course. This article may explain it better than I ever could (might not be the best source, was just a quick DDG search).

        I’ve never understood those problems. I’m not saying they don’t exist, I haven’t investigated it or anything lol, but I don’t see why individual non-electron programs have less overhead than individual electron programs when the argument is that multiple would-be electron apps could share one browser instance because multiple non-electron apps also don’t share anything.

        Also I don’t see how not using a chromium base would make programs better about having massive 1 GB directories of various temp files.

        What am I missing? Because clearly those problems exist.
