Like OP, I’ve used 1P since the early 2010s. Its approachability (and the fact that I pay for it) finally convinced my family (SO/siblings/parents) to use a password manager. I love the native experience on iOS, and the full desktop version + browser extensions I remember being frustrated by the Dropbox loss, and I’m still frustrated that they seem to push 1PasswordX over the native apps. Other than that I’ve only ha…

I self-host using docker. It is very reliable including updates. Transition is as easy as exporting your 1P database and importing it into BW. Integration in IOS is very similar as 1P. Overall, 1P's apps are more polished than BW. You notice it when you migrate over and after a while you forget about it. There's one caveat and that is you've to pay BW $10 per year to get TOTP/2F AUTH support and offline support in th…

You don't have to pay if you use biwarden_rs. It's also way lighter and easier to set up.

Moving from 1Password to Bitwarden was the best thing I did. Bitwarden enabled me to use it with Linux, Mac, Windows, Web, etc. _years_ before 1Password decided to join the party. And there's no subscription to speak of - just a premium "extra features you may or may not want" yearly payment, which works out _much_ cheaper. Finally - all my passwords belong to me. Self hosted server means that I keep control, not som…

Since Bitwarden is end-to-end encrypted, the risk isn't who hosts the data but who controls chrome extension and App Store updates. Bitwarden's servers being compromised would cause you no harm except data loss, but a malicious client update could steal all of your passwords.

That is why you should never ever auto-update your add-ons.

> Or you can buy DaVinci Resolve for $295 and get a lifetime license. I make good money, and so dropping $20 on something for a new hobby is something I do without thinking, but $295 is something I have to consider. And I'm a software developer who makes a decent salary. It's more than 10x the cost. It takes fifteen months before that breaks even. > And they make a Linux version. I'm not a Linux user, so this isn't s…

I just want to add that Resolve is an amazing product no matter how you pay for it. For beginners and professionals alike. You will constantly need help using Premiere and you’ll never think you’re using it right because it’s a sum of mismatch concepts and dead ends. Resolve has a comprehensive design so you can learn how to use it and keep using it that way because the entire software supports those concepts.

I've found Premire pretty intuitive, mostly, to be honest. Glad to hear Resolve is great though :)

I'm a big fan of 1Password. I've been paying for it for years. A few years ago I got my partner setup in a few minutes and now they have strong passwords everywhere. Its got great features for sharing vaults with other people so I've got password managers setup for the kids too. My partner and I both have personal vaults, we have a shared vault for financial stuff, and a shared vault for our media accounts (that we s…

Bitwarden https://bitwarden.com/ Has clients for all platforms, open source, self hosting or free plans and saas. Waited long time for 1password for linux and switched last year to bitwarden. Family Account for 6 Users ($40 per year)

How good is Bitwarden on iOS?

I had to reduce #Lastpass importance here, when they crippled the multiple plaform usability so my natural choice was #Bitwarden. THe fact that they are open source and will not pull such a stunt as lastpass did was vital for me.

Lastpass is now reduced to usage on linux machines, while bitwarden superceeds it on all platforms, even when new ones come in the future

How many widely used Qt\GTK apps can you name if we are talking about general market and not just linux tools build by developers for developers? I can name Krita and that's about it. So... yeah, I guess finding a professional skilled in Qt or GTK might be problem. And honestly - why bother?

Telegram, Maya, Ableton Live?

See - now we know were all those Qt devs are :)

Bitwarden is €10 when invoiced annually (32 vs 10).

Understood. There will always be something cheaper. Just commenting on your point about: > I think 3.33 euros per months is about a good valance. :)

Oh, but that is the family plan. Yes, of course, there will be always a cheaper and a more expensive options.

It is just that I feel that 10 per year (personal) or 40 per year (family) is a fair amount to pay for this service.

Hard drives are large enough nowadays to contain a whole copy of the internet. Instead of connecting to the internet to access the web, computers should serve up local copies of the sites instead. Then it is 100% secure and there is no more need for passwords or insecure WiFi connections.

Bless your heart, you probably think Google is one website, huh? How big could all that text be, a terabyte?

How come the quite thoughtful comment you’re replying to is downvoted while your snotty little reply isn’t?

Since most passwords can be reset via email, you're placing a similar level of trust in your email provider (and if you host your own, in your domain provider). At some point the paranoia isn't productive anymore.

My threat model isn't super high profile, so no? Partly given 2FA, but more importantly the fact that I check my email pretty frequently (most of them will be like "hey, someone's trying to change your password, is it you?), I don't think that's a fair comparison.

Be aware that anyone who has access to your email can also delete the "we changed your password" emails.

Properly engineered a cloud-based password storage system should be at least as secure as email, if not moreso (and I believe 1password has it engineered that way).

Very nice! The UI is not pretty, but the UX surely is great. Bitwarden also provides true black theme for OLED. Website auto-detect key works well on Safari, but hit-and-miss on other browser (just like 1P is—or was).
