Opinion - What are your thoughts on password managers? Do you use one? Would you recommend it to others? in c/android

I'm probably an ignorant paranoid about them, I know I should google a bit of them, but instead I'm going for the ol' trusty ask the community.

Do they save your passwords locally or in the cloud? If locally, what if I want to sign in in another device? What if I lose the device I have my passwords on? What if they hack my device? If in the cloud: How can I know the service is not stealing my information? If I can access it anywhere, wouldn't that mean it also needs a password? Wouldn't that make it twice as unsafe as it would only take one password to access the rest?

Edit: Damn, I got extremely useful answers, I'm starting to like lemmy!

Outlook suddenly started opening links in Edge, disregarding my default browser settings in c/mildlyinfuriating

I mean, do people actually use the search feature for anything besides looking for files IN your system?
