second. i think this one is the best. works well on mobile and desktop. can share stuff. has a good free level. i love it
Third. We even formed a organisation to share passwords to streaming sites (looking at you, Netflix). I like the emergency feature when something happen to me and my partner can access my passwords and login information.
Seems most people are recommending Bitwarden! Is it free to selfhost? I'm new to selfhosting but I'd love to give this a shot.
Bitwarden. I've used a bunch of password managers, Bitwarden has been by far the best for me.
The mobile, desktop, and web app are all awesome and work great.
Self-hostable, open source, great feature set. Pricing is super reasonable for their cloud hosted features. Ui is simple, clean, makes sense, and so far I've had zero issues with syncing, saving, etc.
IMO, it's a great example of a FOSS application that looks and functions as good or better than the nicest closed source proprietary software.
This. Love Bitwarden
The passphrase generator is the best thing. Yes, I know, I should never see/need the password in clear text, but when you have to login onto something on your TV, it's nice to have words that make sense.
I'm happy with Bitwarden.
Bitwarden ftw!! Best $10 a year...... Looking to self host also...but would still donate the $10 a year, because its 100% worth it in my opinion
Yup bitwarden is a good option. Curious if Proton's new manager will be any good.
Another happy Bitwarden user here!
BitWarden has been a trusted, reliable and very useful service for me.
I started using Bitwarden a few years ago and it's been excellent.
Fellow keepass user here
I use KeepassXC from the distro repos and syncthing so I have that shit synced around the whole house.
edit: on android I use KeepassDX
It is keepass all the way down lol
KeePass has been my go to password manager since 2012, and all the apps on various platforms do a good job of integrating with their respective platforms. I personally use KeePassXC on Ubuntu, works great (except no auto-type using wayland). Hardest part is picking a file syncing service for the database file.
Yep, i use KeepassXC on Ubuntu and KeepassDX on android. I use syncthing for syncing
BitWarden in personal life. Recently discovered my corporate overlords approve KeePass (no synching to my phone though). I'm pumped to have literally any pw vault solution.
No joke, 25% of the people in my office have a sticky note on the bottom of their keyboards. I do the odd security audit and I always check.
Self hosted Vaultwarden. It's great.
Bitwarden user here. I used to use LastPass, but it's hard to beat free software that does the same thing just as well.
I have been using Bitwarden for a long time and never regretted it. If I wanted to have an offline password manager I would look to KeePassXC.
Bitwarden here. Was also a LastPass user. Switched when I retired so I did not have to worry about still keeping any old accounts from work. P.s. Also I like that I can have Bitwarden sync on my phone and my laptop.
I’m also using Bitwarden currently.
I use KeePassXC (KeePassDX on mobile) synced via SyncThing for sensitive/important logins, and Bitwarden for practically everything else.
Big fan of Bitwarden here.
I've been happy with Bitwarden thus far. Used Lastpass back in the day, but migrated over when the renewal prices started creeping up.
Bitwarden FTW
Bitwarden is my go to
Started with Lastpass, but migrated to Bitwarden because of open source. And then came the trouble at Lastpass.
I'm just on bitwarden, I was using keepass for awhile but getting the vault moved between devices was a pain, even with syncthing. If it got desynced it was a pain to fix
Bitwarden
One more for Bitwarden. You can even run your own local server and avoid using the cloud.
KeepassXC!
KeepassXC and various other KeePass2 compatible apps depending on the OS I happen to be using.
At the moment BitWarden, but I'm looking to go to selfhost a VaultWarden server. I've alrrady done it one time with a raspi but after some week it crashed out. Next time I'll use a x86 machine.
Bitwarden is the way to go. Used LastPass years ago when they suddenly switched to the paid model, then they could get fucked. Been with Bitwarden and haven't looked back (or around for alternatives, super happy)
KeePassXC with the db synced by syncthing
Like some others here I use bitwarden, but I'd prefer to move to selfhosted vaultwarden. I haven't taken the leap of opening my server to the world so my family's devices can stay synced. Also, I don't trust my admin skill with server stability and security.
Firefox sync. The service syncs between your actual devices. Nothing is stored online. There is a catch. Everything is encrypted using your password. So if you forget your password, you lose all your passwords.
I sync between my Linux desktop (OpenSuse Tumblweed), my Android phone, and my Steamdeck.
I primarily use Bitwarden with a self hosted Vaultwarden server on my NAS. But since Bitwarden doesn't support an auto-type feature (not the same as auto-fill) I use KeePassXC on my desktop PC for applications too.
I use pass

Selfhosted vaultwarden instance
Been very happy with Bitwarden for quite a few years now.
Bitwarden for personal, 1Password for work stuff.
I much prefer Bitwarden
