Bitwarden all day every day. I don’t even know any of my passwords because they’re all randomly generated. Try to guess my password now hacker man
Bitwarden, all the way.
What are your thoughts on password managers?
They are mandatory in current digital age.
Do you use one?
Yes. Bitwarden.
Would you recommend it to others?
Already do and most are receptive to it once you show them that every single one of them were caught up in a breach at some point.
Bitwarden is really great imo.
Everyone should be using a password manager. Every service should have a different password (and some service should have several passwords) and it’s impossible for the average person to keep track of all of those. Every time I hear about someone losing control of an account it’s because they were using the same password as another service.
I recommend:
- KeePassDX: Can be completely offline. Probably the most secure but can be a little awkward to use sometimes.
- Bitwarden: Cloud based but open source. You could run a server but the main service offers MOST of the features for free.
Your mileage may very with some of the proprietary platforms. However my job uses 1 Password and it seems to be fairly safe.
Password manager-less life with notebooks and reused passwords is life in the stone age. If you or anyone you know isn’t using one, get on bitwarden.
Everyone knows why password manageras are absolutely essential, but here’s an often neglected perk: I can list every site I ever signed up to. Wanna delete some old accounts? “Did you sign up to X yet?” Simples.
I’m in the Bitwarden camp. There is no other way for me to have complex/secure passwords and remember them for my gazillion accounts.
Yes, do it! Now! It’s the safest way, but only by choosing the right and trusted ones. Examples:
- The expensive but good one: 1Password
- The free, geeky and difficult one for normal users: Keepass.
- The simple and free and beloved one: Bitwarden
- The don’t try it ever because they will leak your data: Lastpass.
Bitwarden is the best.
KeePassXC here. Locally encrypted, Locally stored, cloud backup of an encrypted file, synced with SyncThing to mobile devices. I will never trust nor recommend a cloud based manager with all the breaches.
Yes, Bitwarden is the way to go
Bitwarden is just fantastic, it works so well. After migrating from LastPass years ago to BW I haven’t looked back once and have encouraged friends to switch over as well.
I use bitwarden - I like it a lot plus you can self-host if you don’t want to trust a third party
In general, password managers are a must-have in today’s world. The question is not if you should have one, but which one and why.
As a Software Engineer very conscious about security and privacy, but also with a high practicality sense, I’d say you should opt for whatever you feel more comfortable.
If you don’t want to manage anything, then 1password, BitWarden, LastPass or any of those might be right for you. If you are more of the kind to tinker with everything, then you can have your own OwnCloud/NextCloud and use KeePassXC.
I particularly used the later setup, but NextCloud was too much to handle for me, and settled with KeePassXC + Dropbox.
You do you, but use a password manager.
Keepass, from here to eternity
