However, the bitwarden extension autofill isn't as good as the one built into Firefox or Chrome. It doesn't work well on some sites and you have to copy manually.
That's odd to hear! I certainly believe it, because I've had this issue with other password managers in the past - but I haven't come across this with Bitwarden on desktop. Mobile however, I definitely get issues where it won't prompt the autofill button on the keyboard, sometimes tapping the password field will cause it to realize its there, other times I have to use the quick settings tile to autofill.
You might be able to workaround the problematic sites though using their custom fields attributes for logins.
I still prefer it because then I can have teh app on the phone and log into wherever from it, and if I'm in a foreign pc I can log into the vault and copy the passwords. It also works across browsers, so the firefox at home and the edge at work are synced by default
