Okay so yesterday, I changed my password as a precaution because of the hack, and just now I decided to clean my browser tabs and re login and almost forgot my password. I'm done dealing with passwords.

What password manager do you recommend?

Features I’m looking for

-Open Source

-Can be synced to cloud (I don’t want self host)

-Can be accessed via a browser

-Cross platform, the more platforms, the better

-End to End Encrypted, and Encrypted at rest on my device, also need some way to authenticate before releasing the password, like a pin or biometrics

-Autofill for browser and apps

-Free (can be a freemium model, but I need the base tier to be free, too broke to spend money on this lol)

-Can export the passwords to a file

I never used a password manager before so sorry if I seem like a noob.

I know I could google it, but I want the lastest info, not some outdated reddit post.

Edit: Woah, those replies are fast. I think I'll use Bitwarden. Thanks for recommendations! Now I don't need to worry about forgetting passwords anymore. 😄

Edit 2: It seems I've forgotten my email password as well as a few other accounts I haven't logged into for a while. Damn, should've used a password manager earlier.

I like the Password for Nextcloud app. I self-host mine, but I think there might be Nextcloud instances that you can access. It is encrypted, and has an app for smartphones.

Bitwarden. Either selfhosted or the official

As others say, Bitwarden checks all of those boxes, and KeepassXC technically doesn't fit the "not self hosted" requirement, but you can store your database file in any cloud storage you want.

Bitwarden. Definitely recommended.

[-] RomanRoy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Bitwarden, no question

My brain. Comes up with the whackiest excuses for why this-and-that password would be a great choice and how easy it would be to remember, only to later explain to me rationally why it was the wrong choice and how I should've known I'd forget it. Then again, that's just extra security. If it's only stored in my internal memory and even I can't remember it, no one else is getting in for sure.

You can use SafeInCloud.

Used to love LastPass, then it charge expansive for pc and android multi device. I'm too looking for better pm.

[-] Ab_intra@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I've been using keepass for 10+ years now. I store it on a USB that is only connected to the internet when I plug it in.

I use a mixture of Bitwarden and KeepassXC.

BW for most uses KP for things I only want local copies of ^^

[-] burningmatches@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

I just can't get past the name of KeepAss...
