1Password vs BitWarden (self.technology)

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!

"Way better" is an exaggeration in my mind. It may have a few nicer things here and there, but name one thing 1Pass can do that Bitwarden can't? It certainly has a different UI, but I definitely preferred this over my former LastPass account.

This “what can one do that the other can’t” is never a good argument. Specially against someone that was talking about quality.

A horse and a 2023 Lamborghini can do the same things, transport-wise. But that doesn’t mean that the quality is the same.
