Lots of people I respect use Bitwarden, and it always seems to score really highly in these kinds of things. At the same time, the thought of having all my passwords protected by an open source program absolutely terrifies me. I know on some level this is irrational: closed source programs are hacked and cracked all the time, the programs themselves could be running on an open source operating system, closed source programs have had the most breaches (e.g LastPass). But I don’t know if I can get over it. I suppose the analogy is that I’m not sure I’d want to store a valuable physical item in a bank that openly posted it’s entire layout, vault, patrol details etc for all to see. Like yeah there’s something to be said for the wisdom of crowds and utilising that to make something secure, but surely it only takes one genius to come along who sees things differently, spots the flaw and exploits it? And the obfuscation of a closed source program feels like it’s an extra line of defence.

Interesting point of view. For me it is the other way around. I even selfhost bitwarden, just to keep control of my stuff.

How is last pass even there

First thing that came to my mind. And that they're not even 'low', they're high! They should be at the bottom just to dictate how far 'shit product' can be qualified.

Lastpass is absolutely a leader... just at getting breached.

Truth. Lastpass is a clusterfuck wrapped inside a dumpster fire.
