I've used LastPass in the past but now I use bitwarden, gets the job done
Why did you make the switch? Just wondering if I have gotten behind with technology on this one.
LastPass is mpre known for being breached than being a password manager these days.
The last breach was brutal. Turns out notes weren't encrypted either.
Please look up the breaches of LastPass. Such things are simply unacceptable for a password manager.
My org was in talks, and had already signed up for LastPass, a month or so before this last major beach. Almost immediately after switching to them, we had to hoop-jump to update some security hash count, or something like that. I had switched from LastPass to Bitwarden about 6-12 months before the breach and I haven't looked back. Bitwarden is great!
Thanks. I clearly dropped the ball here. I guess 2023 is the year of me migrating to elsewhere from a lot of things.
We all have to learn to improve.
2023 was the year I started my journey towards privacy as well. Protonmail and AnonAddy for email aliasing.
Doing this also made me switch to an actual password manager, instead of relying on Firefox to save my passwords.
I picked Bitwarden. Their track record seemed good. Price is also extremely fair. Its most likely a lot less than you were spending on LastPass anyways. Another notable mention is 1Password, though I have never used them myself.
Good luck!
i remember they increased their prices, and wanted to try out something different
