#3Bit off topic, but I was searching for a better way to manage passwords a few weeks ago (rather than have 1 or 2 master passwords across all websites).
I found KeePass through an old ask HN thread. It's a great little free, open source key/password storage app that works across all my devices (iOS, macOS, windows). https://keepass.info/
I'd be interested to hear any suggestions for similar apps I could recommend to my parents, who expressed concerns about their online passwords. KeePass would be the ideal solution, but I don't think it would hold their hand through download, setup, and password generation enough to be 100% ideal. Any suggestions?

1Password is fantastic.

I've used Lastpass for awhile, and so does my work. Recently I switched to Bitwarden partly because of security concerns, partly because it's open source, but mostly due to Firefox moving to WebExtensions.
They both have free options!

Have a look at 1password.com and their family plan, so you can admin your parents too, in case they forget their master password.
Can’t recommend this enough.
Edit: If that helps, Troy Hunt and other security guys are also using 1password (even the cloud solution).

Long time lastpass user recently switched to BitWarden. I find it's UI to be cleaner/easier to use

Keepass works great, but one disadvantage is that you cannot you additional credentials providers if you want to open your database on other devices. For instance, if I would use a Yubikey provider, I cannot open the database on my iPhone.
It would be great if the authentication providers can be configured in an 'or' instead of an 'AND' (this means convenience vs security). So on Windows, with my Windows account or perhaps Hello it unlocks my Keepass database and perhaps use a Yubikey, but on my iPhone I'm still required to enter a password. But unfortunately, the current implementation combines the authentication providers to create a combined encryption key.
But still, Keepass is easy to setup and maintain. Just put your database on your favorite cloud provider (if you want to take the risk) or manually sync it to your phone and you got the righty credentials everywhere at hand.

The Firefox password manager, combined with Firefox Sync, works across Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android.
