I think it's a requirement since it's much safer than having simpler and/or reused passwords across all your accounts. Used to use LastPass and Firefox Lockwise but after various issues I'm now a happily paying user of 1password, it's great and I've converted my somewhat tech illiterate family over to it. I'd try out KeePass but there's no way I'd want to administer that for my family.
I use one, but I back up my passwords once a month to an encrypted sdcard just in case.
aWallet & the payed option aWallet Cloud couldn't do without it anymore...
I've been rocking the new proton pass, had good luck with it so far.
We (MSP) moved from LastPass to Keeper Security and love it. I switched my personal stuff over to it as well.
It's a must if you want secure passwords. My gf doesn't use one - her passwords are all re-used variations of l33tsp34k that are pretty easy to guess (I can get into her accounts in a few tries if I need to). But also she forgets them often.
I have been using proton pass. Enjoying it so far
I held off on using a password manager for a long time. I used an open source one for my buisness for a while but almost lost the file in a computer failure, lucky I had a backup.... . somewhere.
After that I looked at a cloud option and finally settled on one, then the business died down and I kept using it for my personal stuff. I can't believe I didn't use one earlier. Life is so much easier now, no need to go between my bad password, Medium, and strong. Everything just gets a random password now and no need to worry about a string of 2fa messages hitting my phone when a password gets pwned.
One another Bitwarden user chiming in!
I started with LastPass but they started making things difficult enough on the mobile side that I decided to jump ships. Bitwarden also is a smoother app to use - LastPass felt clunkier (I've used only the free side on both).
Love dashlane.
I've never used a password manager before. I use 2FA or Passkeys on anything that supports them.
Yes, they should be used. KeepassXC FTW
There's an exploit that will dump all you passwords as raw text as a feature
I use keeper which appears to be one of the less popular ones if the comments are anything to go by here but it's served me well, the browser extension and android app are pretty good too with only a few websites flaking out and requiring copy pasting of password
