Bitwarden is really great imo.
bitwarden is the first thing i install on any device and every fresh install
Bitwarden is the best! I actually started with one of the more popular ones, Dashlane, and the thing I found most annoying about it was the boxes and stuff that would always pop up anytime I clicked on a text field. Bitwarden never puts a box on the middle of the screen.
It's free, open source, use it on your phone, mac, PC, browser extension for Firefox. It's the best.
Huge fan of Bitwarden as well.
I love that you can assign a shortcut for autofill. I found the automatic autofill a bit too trigger happy and the shortcut solves that since it'll only autofill when I know there's actually a username/password box on the page. It also works perfectly with websites that ask for the username and password at seperate times (google, Microsoft, etc).
Selfhosting it is even better
*if you keep it updated and follow best practices
Self-hosting isn't a requirement for this and you probably shouldn't if you havent self hosted things before.
They've been independently audited and have earned enough trust to use their hosting imo.
Yeah I agree. I meant that you can save yourself an extra 10 euros a year simply by running a docker container. It's not like there's much setting up to it, but yeah definitely read documentation.
Vaultwarden is a godsend.
I just started using it and am loving it. Although I dont know how well it will integrate with my phone yet. A bit worried about some native apps.
