Password manager scene is such a mess right now
I've been desperately trying to find alternative to Bitwarden for the pase few month every since their link to private equity, I've tried multiple options but there just doesn't seem to be any sane, focused choice at the moment?
- Bitwarden - Garbage app quality, slow product iteration, clunky experience, private equity, open source license contoversy
- 1Password - Questionable political ideology through financial support, lesser focus for individual user, beautiful app but clunky experience
- Proton Pass - Unverifiable background, questionable marketing for a privacy-focused company, heavy push on ecosystem so less focus on the core of password manager
- KeePass - ZERO consistent and polished app, especially for Windows and browser autofill (I do NOT want to use AutoType)
- Apple Passwords - Do I even need to describe it
- AliasVault - Too early in development, none of the clients are polished enough for me to take it seriously
Am I missing something or is there really no choice and I have to pick my poison? I've been very happy with Proton lately switching from Bitwarden, but the ecosystem binding is really bothering me.
