I'm using KeePass currently, since I don't really want to use anything publicly hosted. But I was curious to see what other people have been using!

I use KeepassXC from the distro repos and syncthing so I have that shit synced around the whole house.


edit: on android I use KeepassDX

It is keepass all the way down lol

[–] itsmect@monero.town 1 points 2 years ago

Absolutely the way to go. Unrivaled in terms of flexibility and freedom.

I use keepassx and cloud storage to move it between computers like a caveman.

[–] catsup@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

Personally, bitwarden because of the browser addon, and then KeepassXC to store the 2FA recovery codes

[–] PublicLewdness@burggit.moe 1 points 2 years ago

I use KeepassXC on my desktops and laptops. On my Pinephone CE I use Gnome Password Manager because it is more optimized for mobile screens. On my Pixel 2 on Ubuntu Touch I use an unnoficial port of Bitwarden. Overall I use my desktop and laptops the most so KeePassXC is my go to and favorite.

1Password because we’re an Apple household (aside from my work laptop, and even then it’s easy enough to use through the web interface). The main thing that irks me about it is that they keep offering discounts for new subscribers but longtime users have to keep paying the full price. But I’ve been considering switching to Proton for email, and they’re in the process of rolling out a password manager that seems similar so I may be switching to that sooner rather than later.

[–] QHC@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Another very happy 1Password user here!

I switched my workplace to 1Password and I moved from Dashlane at the same time. One thing that's nice about 1P from that perspective is that our plan gives everyone a free personal account that they could take with them if they left the company (they'd have to pay for it themselves at that point of course).

Usability is the best of any password manager I've used, but the killer feature for us as a development team was the flexibility. Being able to assign the same credentials to multiple URLs (e.g. dev, stage, QA, prod) was just not possible with everything else we looked at the time.

[–] GoatTnder@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

I use OneNote, with a bunch of coded words that mean other things and mix and match those to make longer passwords that are all different. Because I'm too lazy for a real app, and this is secure enough and useful enough.

[–] ErenYakov@stars.leemoon.network 1 points 2 years ago

I used to use keepassxc, but I was too lazy to sync everything with syncthing. That's why I use bitwarden

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Keepass is great, use it at work.

1Password for my personal stuff

Lastpass has had too many leaks / issues for me to ever trust them again

[–] katoumegumi_@linux.community 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, bitwarden rules

[–] darcy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

keepassxc for linux, keepassdx for android

[–] 34@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I use 1password, I used KeePass for years but it didn't work will on Android so I moved on.

[–] grilledsausage@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Also using 1Password, works great for what my family needs.

[–] Evolone@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

1Password is a genuine life saver.

[–] Chetzemoka@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Dashlane. I need a service where I can share/manage things for my elderly parents, and Dashlane is easier for that after LastPass became a dumpster fire

[–] wagesj45@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Dashlane here. I self host a lot and could definitely use Keypass or something locally, but the risk of losing all your passwords if I fuck something up was too great. I'll pay professionals.

[–] thanksbrother@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Another vote for Bitwarden. Works on everything I use!

[–] korthrun@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 years ago

I'm very surprised at how web centric some of these answers are. I have so many passwords that have nothing to do with a web site.

"Google Chrome" is not gonna type in the bitlocker password on a dual boot system everytime there's a kernel update :p.

Get yourself a mooltipass :D

[–] decavolt@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Bitwarden, all the way. On my mobile devices, laptops, etc.

I used to use KeePass but the UI is so antiquated and features also just haven't kept up. Bitwarden free, open source, audited, syncs and works everywhere flawlessly, and I can self host if I ever want to. It's great.

Bitwarden for several years.

[–] jclinares@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Same here. I used to have LastPass, but after their privacy fiasco, I moved to Bitwarden, which I find to be rock solid. The fact that it's open source helps me feel more at ease that they won't pull any crap as easily as other password managers.
