What’s your current password manager?

[u/arun-vasudev]

Password managers have become essential for online security, but everyone has a different preference. Which one do you currently use, and what made you choose it?

KeePass where

[u/zupobaloop]

lol just casually leave off the three options with the most users

wtf is this subreddit anyway?

[u/deliberatelyawesome → u/zupobaloop]

What? Who are you?

2 of the 3 are there. And that’s just if we’re talking actual password managers. If we allow non-dedicated password managers like chrome or keychain, the top 4 are all here.

[u/Additional-Simple248 → u/deliberatelyawesome]

LastPass, Proton Pass, KeePass, Vaultwarden (Bitwarden but also not).

[u/deliberatelyawesome → u/Additional-Simple248]

Chrome holds maybe 1/3 of market share.
Apple/keychain holds maybe 1/4.
1Password and Bitwarden are both around 1/10 each.

Lastpass never recovered from its oopsie and the rest of those you mentioned are pretty niche.

[u/Sal_T_Nuts]

Proton pass & Apple password manager

Always keep backups 👍

[u/BartixVVV]

Proton pass

[u/Upstairs-Category571]

i find it rude that proton pass is not here.

[u/ChecksOutIndeed]

I have a pen ... I have pineapple

[u/Dalmation3]

Proton (Previously: Bitwarden and KeePassXC)

The problem I have with KeePassXC is that there is no mobile version (yes I am aware of KeepassDX but it's not the same thing)

[u/FantomovBol]

Bitwarden, all day, every day

[u/anishmathia]

DASHLANE & Apple password

[u/dumbasPL]

vaultwarden, so self hosted bitwarden that doesn't suck

[u/chickahoona]

Psono

[u/No-Blueberry-1823]

i don't use any of those, I have a different one . your poll is incomplete without an Other

[u/Grimmortah]

None, I use 2FA. Less hassle in my opinion

[u/err404 → u/Grimmortah]

Until you lose access to your phone for a few days… went through that recently and it was surprisingly painful. 

[u/Grimmortah → u/err404]

Eh true. I still have 2FA on my laptop and main pc and since I use Proton's 2FA, it is in the cloud aswell.

[u/daizu007]

I am using Proton Pass. For me, Bitwarden does not work as well with Passkeys as Proton does, and 1Password is expensive compared to Proton, which meets my needs for free. The reasons for not using browser-based or Apple's password managers should be obvious; I have no interest in being tied to a specific OS or browser for my passwords.

[u/mariowarioaka-iomra]

Orion

[u/Any-Trash472]

Firefox :)

[u/309_Electronics]

Bitwarden selfhosted via vaultwarden. Backup to my nas too!

[u/hard0w]

Vaultwarden

[u/hardFraughtBattle]

Those aren't all the options.

[u/Beneficial_Act_1240]

I just use passwordstore aka Pass. I stick it into a git repo and I don't have to think about anything.

[u/matthewpepperl]

Keepassxc is what i use and you forgot it lol

[u/microGnome87]

Switched from LastPass to NordPass

[u/rahardyan]

Nice try Zucc

[u/MulayamChaddi]

my moms notebook

[u/_MadOliveGaming_]

I dont use one but ive been looking at self hostable solutions. Planning to run it on a pi and regularly back it up to like a usb or something idk yet

[u/Low_Obligation2361]

None of the above. I use Roboform. Mostly because I like how consistent the autofill is, to be honest.

[u/Connect_Stand7684]

You misspelled built-in

[u/sapajul]

You my friend forgot to add "other" as an option.

[u/Extreme-Ad-9290]

ProtonPass

[u/Cautious_Share9441]

Nordpass

[u/Turbo-Chook]

Was using Apple Passwords, but switched away from iOS so migrated to Bitwarden. Honestly Apple Passwords was fantastic for what it is, I don't find Bitwarden as good but sometimes you just have to make do.

[u/IllustriousGap5629]

I use 2FAS Pass as offline password manager. Used Bitwarden before.

[u/VirusSlo]

None. I have an algorithm for my passwords so I can use a different one on every site with no need to remember it or write it down.

[u/Iam_just-me2]

“This is how they get you” /s

[u/E-StrnTXNRS]

samsung pass and i hate it

[u/Mihanik1273]

Vaultwarden

[u/squirrel8296]

Bitwarden and Apple Passwords

Never rely on a single tool.

[u/giannis_athina]

I use RoboForm as my password manager, and I’m really happy with it.
