Why people still use it despite two security breaches?
This is not a good reason, but it’s time consuming switching to another password vault. shields up
I switched from LastPass to Bitwarden, years ago now, and the whole process took roughly 5 minutes. I’m not sure if something has changed since then, or if it’s more complicated to switch to something other than Bitwarden, but my experience is that it at least can be simple.
The change was LastPass messing around with their membership options.
I had LastPass for years. I eventually decided to pay for it. Then they decided to remove premium all together…only to add it back by taking away features. One of those features was being able to use both mobile and web.
I opted for mobile, because I always have my phone with me, and the app has biometric unlock, whereas web does not.
But you can’t save and export your LastPass via mobile. Has to be web. So I had to switch that. And I’m just now getting to a point where I can transfer.
KeepassXC and sharing the databases between devices with any sync tool is the best bet for me. Used it since I started using password managers and I will never understand using any online service for this.
Just use Bitwarden, Keepass, or whatever your choice. I’m surprised people still trust Last Pass.
Bitwarden, Keepass
Do you mind if I pass your number on to my mother and father in law for tech support in setting it up on their Windows laptops and iPhones? I would do it, but I already have a full time job.
If they have a windows laptop they probably also have an android phone. In that case it would make the most sense to have them use the chrome/google password manager.
Ditched Lastpass years ago and switched to bitwarden. Much, much better experience.
Bitwarden FTW
Went to 1password shortly after the first (maybe) debacle and have been extremely pleased since. I know it’s a similar risk with a hosted database but the convenience is hard to beat
same just with bitwarden. Honestly i think anything might be better than LastPass.
That’s why I love LessPass, no way of being compromised.
