The bit at the end about email deliverability was also interesting: Notifying our subscribers is another problem... in terms of not ending up on a reputation naughty list or having mail throttled by the receiving server .... Not such a biggy for sending breach notices, but a major problem for people trying to sign into their dashboard who can no longer receive the email with the "magic" link. And this observation he…
There have been enough data breaches at this point that I'm sure all my info has been exposed multiple times (addresses, SSN, telephone number, email, etc). My email is in over a dozen breaches listed on the been pwned site. I've gotten legal letters about breaches from colleges I applied to, job boards I used, and other places that definitely have a good amount of my past personal information. And that's not even co…
The government can have at my real info, but private companies have bad data security.

I self-host through Vaultwarden but I think I miss this. Besides, I feel like paying these guys anyway just for the great product. We use 1Password at $dayjob and it's so primitive by comparison.

+1 for Bitwarden. It is literally the best solution out there. Been getting to increase uptake in personal circles with (very) limited success. The wife keeps trying to convince me that the ship has sailed in trying to protect info online. She's probably right.
Now that I'm not only using a Macbook and iPhone, I've been looking for cross-platform solutions. For a week I've been using KeePassXC + Syncthing between four devices. Syncthing is also syncing my Obsidian vaults which has replaced Apple-only Notes.app. Bitwarden is definitely more polished, and Syncthing is definitely (much) more fiddly than using Bitwarden's and Obsidian's ($5/mo) native syncing tools. But I like…

The moment you put TOTP in Bitwarden it is no longer a 'second factor'. Pretty bad security advice to be honest. Better to use hardware tokens or a secure phone (with enclave) instead (never SMS though).

It costs $10/year, so there's really no reason to not pay for it.
I have two reasons not to pay for it: 1) Aegis is free. 2) I rather not have my second factor be stored in the same database as my first factor.

You can check against the API with just the first characters of your hashed password (SHA-1 or NTLM), for example: https://api.pwnedpasswords.com/range/21BD1 or you can download the entire dataset.
How can you download the entire dataset?

I still recommend Bitwarden for password management for any "laypeople" since it will just work. Also worth noting that the basic functionality is free.
