Just wondered what people are using for their password management.

I’m currently using 1Password on a family subscription for both password management and 2FA (and then Authy for the 1Password 2FA). But I’m seeing a lot more posters — particularly since joining Lemmy — championing BitWarden (either cloud or self hosted) and Raivo OTP as a cheaper, almost-as-functional alternative.

So is it worth the switch? Will I lose out on anything by doing so?

I’m currently running BitWarden with a free account to see if I can live with it. But I must admit, 1Password is a staple app for me and one that I would say is priceless to my workflow and setup.

Just interested in your thoughts and trying to stimulate conversation!

    I’ve used both and they’re both great. I didn’t like the migration process for Bitwarden -> 1Password. I think I ended up downloading some python script to change the format of my Bitwarden export to a format 1Password could understand. I imagine the migration process is a lot better now since it’s been about a year since I’ve done that.

    Outside of that, I like the design of 1Password better, and it also tends to auto fill more reliably as well. iirc Bitwarden has auto fill as well, but it didn’t work great for me, so I ended up copy pasting passwords instead. Not a huge deal, just something to keep in mind.
