Bitwarden is my chosen service, good pricing point and decent features. In terms of using a password manager, it has definitely made my life demonstrably easier and removes a lot of friction from my online life.
To add to this, I use a self-hosted version of bitwarden. My favourite feature so far would be being able to fill TOTP seamlessly for websites that has TOTP added as 2FA.
The moment I select an account to autofill on any device and login, the TOTP is automatically copied to the clipboard.
It feels seamless as hell to use the auto-generated TOTPs compared to diving in to emails, checking texts, bringing up google authenticator, etc. I can't go back.
Same. I actually have a family account, which has been an absolute blessing with kids. They know their own passwords now and no longer come to me wanting/needing to know their password for Xbox/Gmail/playstation/whatever everyother damned day. Also, if they need to know the Netflix password, they can check it too, because that's shared with them. It's brilliant. I'm honestly not sure how I lived without bittwarden.
I can safely say that I lived poorly, and far less securely, before I started using one.
