Password Managers
Password Managers
What is a really smart choice for password manager apps? Concerned about privacy and politically involved CEOs.
I've used:
- LastPass
- 1Password
- ProtonPass (Now using)
I thought ProtonPass was a good choice but I'm starting to read more about it. What's just a really solid choice all around, that you can feel good about? Free or paid.
Update: I decided to go with Bitwarden and Bitwarden Authenticator. The features and the experience are better than the three listed above that I've used before. Awesome advice here, thanks everyone.

I pay for a 1Password family account. I like it.
Getting the family to use it is hard, but that would be the case with any password manager.
I understand there’s a bit of of bias here, but I’ve been using 1Password for probably 10+ years and have literally never had a problem. Transferred between multiple devices, added family, etc.
Solid as hell and super reliable.
Selfhost if you want, but I’ll take the reliability.
I do selfhost everything I can, but have chosen not to do that with my passwords. It feels to much all-eggs-in-one-basket-y.
1Password also holds my SSH keys and acts as an ssh-agent on most systems, and I also just found out that you can get secrets from your 1Password vault in Python, which means my PyInfra scripts can use it as well.
Yeah, totally agree. I do backups in a similar way. Do I have cloud backups? Yes. Do I also have local? Hell yes.
A combination of the two is likely the best bet but I will say 1Password feels like one of those “oft imitated, rarely replicated” solutions.
Although I’ve also been using Apple’s solution for similar reasons. Works great, too.
