Using different passwords for different services protects you against data leaks opening attack vectors for all your services as well as malicious actors using your passwords like that as well as phishing impact.
A password manager is a must for reasonable security.
I use keepass. Local DB file with Master password. No hosted service or Browser extension is another layer of protection, of risk reduction. I manually copy/sync the DB file via cloud storage as a backup and for mobile use.
I use Browser password storage selectively. The most critical stuff definitely only belongs into my memory and password database.
Plus one for keepass. It is a bit more friction compared to paid services but you are in control of the passwords database, which is why I use it.
Same: KeePass, local DB file, synch across devices.
Same! And I use syncthing to sync the db across devices, no manual intervention needed :)
I leave my database on nextcloud and sync it to all my devices. Works well for me.
