Just wondered what people are using for their password management.

I’m currently using 1Password on a family subscription for both password management and 2FA (and then Authy for the 1Password 2FA). But I’m seeing a lot more posters — particularly since joining Lemmy — championing BitWarden (either cloud or self hosted) and Raivo OTP as a cheaper, almost-as-functional alternative.

So is it worth the switch? Will I lose out on anything by doing so?

I’m currently running BitWarden with a free account to see if I can live with it. But I must admit, 1Password is a staple app for me and one that I would say is priceless to my workflow and setup.

Just interested in your thoughts and trying to stimulate conversation!

I recommend KeePass, used it for years, open source, not hosted, can use a key file for added security and works well with nextcloud, drive, Dropbox, etc

KeePass is the way. Keep all these newfangled web services away from my passwords. And there's plenty of different open source projects available that all works with the KeePass format.

Keepass XC + syncthing. doesn't have to touch the cloud at all. It's what I do, though I have investigated Vaultwarden for work. But no real SSO / AD integration with it is potentially a deal-breaker. Though I get that it's probably complicated to add.
