    I’ve used Bitwarden because it’s available everywhere I need it

    I mean that’s true about Proton and several others too, right? Like Firefox itself, can fill passwords and sync them across devices. That’s basically what I’m using for convenience. No extra app needed to store passwords.

    Maybe that’s unsafe? I dunno. I just haven’t found something as convenient as that yet.

      Yeah, whatever floats your boat! Firefox password manager is fine, but I have some devices where I don’t use Firefox, so I need cross-platform. Plus, Bitwarden can save other stuff securely like notes, and the features it has for secure password generation work very well.

        Definitely am missing those other features. 🙂 That’s why I’ve been browsing for a standalone password manager. Notes, cards, stuff like that. Password generation is readily available on Linux, or when using a sign-up form in Firefox with the proper input types. But it’s not really very configurable in Firefox.

        I’m really hopeful for Bitwarden now! I’m like split evenly between BW and Proton because it’s also very confident convenient to have them in the same service, if I ever become a Proton customer, which I’ve been looking to possibly become some time in the future. So I’m really looking for pros and cons between them both. ⚖️
