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!

No I’m pretty open to either hosted or self hosted. I use KeePass in work (because it’s mandated) and I’d probably describe it as “OK”. The plug-ins are a little fiddly to get working, and my work actually block most of them which drastically reduces the functionality. I have zero browser integration, for example, so I have to copy/paste passwords in each time. Which isn’t the end of the world, but annoying.

Also not sure if there’s a macOS version of KeePass or something I could also use across iOS, watchOS and iPadOS as well.
