I use a qwertycard, I don't see it as being 'low security', but obviously not as convenient as the software password managers out there.

#32PasswordSafe (on Windows, Android, and under Wine on Mac), because I want to own my data and not be forced or pressured to use some cloud service. Also, PasswordSafe was the most secure according to some tests.
Currently still using DropBox to sync the password file and backups, but will switch soon to ownCloud with my own server.
The Firefox password manager contains copies of many of the passwords, but I don't sync those between machines.

#33I use a shell alias: alias getpass='_getpass() { _g=$(printf "sauce%s" "${*}" | md5sum | openssl enc -base64 | cut -c1-16); printf "%s" "${_g}"|xclip -selection clipboard 2>/dev/null|| printf "%s\\n" "${_g}"; }; _getpass' like this: $ getpass mail@domain.lts $ getpass user@domain.lts #for ssh logins
Seems like that would be pretty annoying for passwords that must be changed periodically (or even just occasionally).

#341password on iOS/OSX. There was a big discount on both a while back and I jumped on it. Even today, I'd consider paying for it. I've tried all the open source options, none of them worked nearly as well as 1pwd.
Hands down the best fifty bucks I've ever spent.

#37lastpass premium, works well across all my devices. for a little more security you can use a yubikey with lasspass. this isnt without its issues but i think its sufficient for most.

#38I have a handful that I've memorized. It then becomes a matter of remembering which password goes to which site I suppose. I've heard good things about 1password.

#40I use KeyPass synced over Dropbox to all my devices. My wife really like Dashlane, which has some neat (if a little scary) features like the ability to automatically change many account passwords at once.
