Another vouch for bitwarden, its free and has everything I need. Been using it for at least 5 years.

There are so many responses for Bitwarden that I am suspicious. Is it just that popular, or is this some sort of astroturfing? I didn't think Lemmy was popular enough to attract that, but who knows.

It's open source so lemmy users would naturally gravitate to it.

Been using it for years since LastPass' fiasco, no regret.

It is just easy to use and no issue.

But hey this comes from me random internet user talking to you another random internet user. If that's called astroturfing then we all do that around here.

It probably is that popular among this crowd. There's options to self-host your own Bitwarden instance IIRC.

I've started migrating away from LastPass and am using Bitwarden for new projects personally. LastPass is way better than nothing, but I wouldn't recommend LastPass over Bitwarden these days.

If money is involved, your gut is right. Look at the comment history of all these accounts.. One comment... Promoting bitwarden... That should tell you everything.

Look at keepass, self host your database..or not, and compatible with every platform

Bro, most of us just moved from Reddit and are lurkers. Bitwarden is just that good. I just migrated from keepass.

Also, premium is pretty cheap and has cool features like saving big files and generating 2FA codes all in one place.
