Bitwarden. I have an easy way to exchange a huge amount of data (not only passwords) across my family with specific access rights to objects.



Ugh that reminds me I've been promising for ages to migrate all my partner's passwords over from the ridiculously overpriced LastPass.

Out of interest, how do you use Bitwarden day-to-day - browser extension?


I used LastPass since it started, I had the opportunity to meet the creators at an event some 20 years ago or more. It was a nice product at that time.

And then it went downhill, with several issues (including a huge javascript block added to each page which was really too slow). It was not aging well as well.

I moved to Bitwarden a few years ago, I self-host the solution but like it so much that I also bought the cloud one just to support the devs.

I looked at at several solutions for password management and BW is by far the one I like the most, especially the ability to create organizations to share vaults and passwords easily.

I use it in Windows (the native client), Chrome, Firefox and Android. It works just great.

the only tiny, tiny thing they could fix is the ability to swipe off the popup that helps you to fill in the info with Bitwarden that sometimes gets in the way of the form (on Android). It is very minor and I will take the opportunity to raise the point on the community now that I think of ot.


Agreed on all of those points - Loved Lastpass when it first appeared, felt stung by the doubling (quadrupling?) of the fee and exported all my data to Bitwarden a few years ago. Haven't looked back since.
