    Comment summary: LastPass offers convenient features like secure password storage, multi-browser plugins, and cross-platform access, appealing to users needing robust password management. However, concerns about security breaches, proprietary nature, and recent policy changes limiting free use have shifted many users towards alternatives like Bitwarden and KeePass. The premium option provides additional tools like YubiKey support, yet criticism over the user interface and incomplete encryption of data remains prevalent.

    Very convenient. All passwords in one place. Easy to generate and save. Safe storage.

    It is known that Lastpass DOES NOT encrypt the URLs at which you have accounts. See here: https://systemoverlord.com/2015/09/16/what-the-lastpass-cli-tells-us-about-lastpass-design/

    This means that which websites you have accounts with can be a) known to Lastpass, b) known to government agencies who subpoena them, c) known to anyone who breaches their servers to pull this data, d) used to profile users (you will have a fairly unique collection of URLs, probably), e) it might - in principle - be used to monitor when you call on Lastpass to let you into these sites.

    Don't go with Lastpass. Go with Bitwarden, precisely because they are open source and because, unlike Lastpass, they encrypt EVERY field in your database.

    An alternative is to go with something like KeepassXC (also open source) and connect to the browser via a plugin.

    Very interesting, would you say Buttercup password manager is good too? It is open source but stores your data which is encrypted to Dropbox, Gdrive, Box

    Buttercup is ok, and if you want to use services like Dropbox, Gdrive, etc. then that's your call. My opinion is that: 1.

    • The best synced open source password manager is Bitwarden
    • The best local (you choose how to sync it, if at all) is KeePassXC
    • Instead of Dropbox, Gdrive, etc., try sync.com and Tresorit. These are encrypted, zero-knowledge service in their own right, which means that if you sync your password database with them, they'll never know about it. Dropbox and their ilk can see at least that you are syncing a password database, and if the Snowden leaks and previous Yahoo.com scandals are anything to go by, it's not unlikely that those files can be earmarked for future analysis, as is done with encrypted emails.

    Another option is to use Cryptomator to secure your files on Dropbox, etc. Cryptomator is one of my absolutely favourite apps for advancing online security: simple, free, open-source, necessary and cross-platform.

    However, that doesn't get around the fact that if you go with, e.g. Buttercup + Dropbox (via Cryptomator or not), you still will have Dropbox, GDrive or whatever installed on your machine. I don't advise that, either (see list of alternatives above), because they have questionable practices. But that's a whole new rabbit hole to dive into and probably beyond the scope of this question/comment.

    I see, well Buttercup says that they encrypt password file before storing it on Gdrive, Dropbox, etc. Also you do not need to have the Gdrive client installed on your device Buttercup to sync with it.

    I'll open an issue on Github for Buttercup to have support for Sync.com it looks good. I am currently using Bitwarden, i have found Buttercup and enjoyed it only issue i have with buttercup is that it can't import Bitwarden CSV file and syncs with mainstream unproctected cloud services.

    Thanks :)

    You could never pay or seduce me to use LastPass considering their horrific security history (data breaches), in addition to it being a proprietary product.

    Even before the security breach or knowing what "open source" was, I remember trying this out because of some tech nerd. All that happened was I got locked out of my lastpass account because the 15 character master password I initially wanted "wasn't good" enough. Even more private password managers are more convenient than this.

    I use many different services, each needing a reliable, unique password. It's impossible to remember them all, but this tool makes it easy luckily. Super convenient.

    If this was my only choice for a password manager, I still wouldn't use it. Post-it notes stuck to your computer monitor are more secure.

    It's not just that they had a security breach. Bugs can happen to the best of us. It's that they handled every aspect of the failure wrong after the fact, attempting to cover up and minimize damage to their reputation rather than minimizing damage to the users that had trusted them.

    Security level is lacking. Free users cannot use more than 1 device. Export corrupted files. The app consumes a lot of data. Enjoyment is only during the 60-day trial. After that, the features are very basic. Even less than basic. Better to use a much better free alternative like Bitwarden (recmommended) or Google's built-in. But today im using KeePassXC.
