I'm using KeePass currently, since I don't really want to use anything publicly hosted. But I was curious to see what other people have been using!

KeepassXC with syncthing

[-] wagesj45@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

Dashlane here. I self host a lot and could definitely use Keypass or something locally, but the risk of losing all your passwords if I fuck something up was too great. I'll pay professionals.

Another vote for Bitwarden. Works on everything I use!

[-] mlaga97@lemmy.mlaga97.space 4 points 2 years ago

I used to use KeePass, but switched to https://www.passwordstore.org with a YubiKey after discovering how janky the KeePass 2FA system is designed a while back.

I’m entirely in the Apple ecosystem, so I use the built in Keychain, synced across devices through iCloud.

It would be Bitwarden otherwise.

For work I use 1Password, for at home I use Bitwarden.

[-] 34@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

I use 1password, I used KeePass for years but it didn't work will on Android so I moved on.

[-] grilledsausage@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

Also using 1Password, works great for what my family needs.

Another happy KeepassXC user here! Keepass2android on Android. I keep the passwords synced with nextcloud

[-] glish@localghost.org 4 points 2 years ago

KeePassXC and Keepass2Android auto-synced with my Nextcloud instance. Works great cross-platform for Linux/Windows/Android.

I know what you mean, trusting a SaaS provider with my master password list always felt like a bad plan.

[-] Senseless@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago

I used KeepassXC and Keepass2Android but the implementation seems a bit janky at times and the need to sync it manually or let it sync via a cloud is not all that comfortable.

I switched to Bitwarden about a month ago and consider it still as a test phase for now. I'm not that happy with just having my passwords lying around on a random cloud server.

[-] kugiyasan@lemmy.one 4 points 2 years ago

You can always self host your bitwarden instance if you want.

For me, bitwarden is a good middle ground, it's super easy to setup, works super well on desktop and android, and it's still way better than using the same 8 character password everywhere. I think it's easier to recommend as a starter to anyone that's not using a password manager.

I use Bitwarden and honestly couldn’t be happier. My partner and I both use it, so it’s incredibly easy to share any credentials we both need to use. It also works great on every platform I’ve personally tried it on, and I like that I can use it for totp 2fa as well.

[-] argentcorvid@midwest.social 3 points 2 years ago

I've been using KeePass and KeePassdroid for at least 10 years now. "Sync" my dB through one drive, only because at one time we were allowed to use our personal one at work, but since they blocked personal folders in favor of corporate ones it is much less handy.

[-] Evolone@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

1Password is a genuine life saver.

[-] GoatTnder@lemmy.one 3 points 2 years ago

I use OneNote, with a bunch of coded words that mean other things and mix and match those to make longer passwords that are all different. Because I'm too lazy for a real app, and this is secure enough and useful enough.

I rolled my own, actually. I don't store any passwords (even encrypted). Instead, I just append the site name to my base password (which is in my head), hash it, and base-52 it. (I also start each password with the same uppercase letter, lowercase letter, punctuation mark, just to ensure it gets past any bullshit filters)

I like that there's nothing that can be leaked (except what's in my head) and nothing to be lost and nothing to back up.

[-] nomadic@lemmy.one 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Can you please elaborate on each step. I'm not sure on the hash and base52 - do you use a program you're written to do that for you? A simple example would be fantastic.

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.

[-] radiumz@lemmy.one 3 points 2 years ago

Selfhosted vaultwarden instance

[-] Oobleck@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 years ago

Bitwarden. I left LastPass about 3 years ago and haven’t looked back. I pay for bitwarden so I can use the TOTP feature and because i can’t wrap my head around the recovery process for my wife if something were to happen to me. I think another, more technically fluent human will need to be involved if that ever comes to pass.

Bitwarden user here.

[-] kn33@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I just lead the migration from LastPass to 1Password for the business I work at. It was really prompted by the breaches at LP and their poor handling of it. For personal stuff, I just did whatever I was doing at work because the business plans come with free licenses for personal accounts.

[-] Fermiverse@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Enpass, no puplic hosting. Clients in phone and PC. You can use your own services if you want to upload or keep it in a folder on the phone.

Bitwarden, easily. You can self host if you want to for added privacy. I don't, but the option is there.

[-] Kranerian@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Bitwarden all the way
