  • They are totally necessary - if you don't use the same passwords across the internet I mean.

    How many accounts do you have on the web? I can count at least twenty accounts that I have and use from a variety of services. Keeping different usernames, emails (through alias) and passes in mind is no easy task, so a good password manager is absolutely needed.

    People are recommending Bitwarden and I can't say it's bad, truly, it's a really secure and private alternative. Although, in my opinion, keeping a offline safe for your accounts is way better because only you have the absolute control over all the credentials. I use KeePassDX on my PC and phone, synced by Synching, and being loving it for some years still.

    • Do you use something to automatically load the password from KeePass in the browser? I've been using KeePass for a few years bc I don't trust cloud password storages but my work started using 1Password and the convenience of having the passwords kinda easy there for you on browser forms is really enticing.
