I’m using KeePass currently, since I don’t really want to use anything publicly hosted. But I was curious to see what other people have been using!
Bitwarden
second. i think this one is the best. works well on mobile and desktop. can share stuff. has a good free level. i love it
Third. We even formed a organisation to share passwords to streaming sites (looking at you, Netflix). I like the emergency feature when something happen to me and my partner can access my passwords and login information.
Seems most people are recommending Bitwarden! Is it free to selfhost? I’m new to selfhosting but I’d love to give this a shot.
I’ve used bitwarden for a few years myself now. I enjoy it. I’m trying to get into self hosting myself and found vaultwarden is an open source fork of bitwarden. That’s probably what I’m going to use
IIRC the $10/yr fee is just for hosting. You should be able to host it yourself for free. At $10/yr tho, even if I’m self hosting I’d pay that just to help development
Vaultwarden is a
gorust fork that is significantly lighter for 1-2 users super easy to self hostEdit: rust fork
Vaultwarden is a go fork
Unofficial Bitwarden compatible server written in Rust, formerly known as bitwarden_rs
But yeah, it’s great.
Forthed! Does everything I need it to do.
Bitwarden. I’ve used a bunch of password managers, Bitwarden has been by far the best for me.
The mobile, desktop, and web app are all awesome and work great.
Self-hostable, open source, great feature set. Pricing is super reasonable for their cloud hosted features. Ui is simple, clean, makes sense, and so far I’ve had zero issues with syncing, saving, etc.
IMO, it’s a great example of a FOSS application that looks and functions as good or better than the nicest closed source proprietary software.
This. Love Bitwarden
The passphrase generator is the best thing. Yes, I know, I should never see/need the password in clear text, but when you have to login onto something on your TV, it’s nice to have words that make sense.
BitWarden
BitWarden has not let me down in 3 years!
I’m happy with Bitwarden.
Bitwarden ftw!! Best $10 a year… Looking to self host also…but would still donate the $10 a year, because its 100% worth it in my opinion
I could easily live without the premium features but since sll they ask is $10, how can i deny? Every other freemium service wants $5/m to start… then you really end up needing to prune stuff back.
$10 is the right price; you can get a lot of people paying a little instead of other way around. And they do organizational as well; assume thats where the real money is.
Another happy Bitwarden user here!
Yup bitwarden is a good option. Curious if Proton’s new manager will be any good.
As far as I’ve seen, Bitwarden does exactly what I need it to and does it well
I agree. It just hits the sweet spot between security and comfort for my needs.
Bitwarden for where convenience is important, which is the majority of my logins (forums, social media, memberships). In turn I also have self hosted Keepas for “key” logins (Bitwarden, online banking, Google).
BitWarden has been a trusted, reliable and very useful service for me.
Yes 100% worth the $ imo… its crazy that my younger self had like 5 variations of passwords for all sites lol
The free version is already really good, but I still have the $10/y premium plan because it’s so cheap and they deserve it :P
I didn’t even know they had a premium option because BitWarden is awesome and doesn’t force it down your throat like some other cloud based PWD Managers do.
I started using Bitwarden a few years ago and it’s been excellent.
Self hosted Bitwarden AKA Vaultwarden.
Looking into selfhosting Bitwarden myself. Has the experience been good for you?
Pretty good, I use it along with Cloudflare tunnels, no ports opened and pretty much a 99% of uptime (I have only had issues when the docker image auto updates because of reasons lol)
Thanks. Will definitely look into it soon.
This is the way.
Fellow keepass user here
I use KeepassXC from the distro repos and syncthing so I have that shit synced around the whole house.
edit: on android I use KeepassDX
It is keepass all the way down lol
I use Google Cloud to sync my PC/Android(KeePass2Android).
I am looking to try KeePassDX, but I don’t see an option to connect/open a google cloud. Idk if i am missing something or if it us just unsupported.Absolutely the way to go. Unrivaled in terms of flexibility and freedom.
I also use KeePassium XC on my desktop and go r mobile I use an app called KeePassium. I just have them pointed at the file in my Google Drive.
KeePass has been my go to password manager since 2012, and all the apps on various platforms do a good job of integrating with their respective platforms. I personally use KeePassXC on Ubuntu, works great (except no auto-type using wayland). Hardest part is picking a file syncing service for the database file.
Yep, i use KeepassXC on Ubuntu and KeepassDX on android. I use syncthing for syncing
Kepass ftw!
BitWarden in personal life. Recently discovered my corporate overlords approve KeePass (no synching to my phone though). I’m pumped to have literally any pw vault solution.
No joke, 25% of the people in my office have a sticky note on the bottom of their keyboards. I do the odd security audit and I always check.
I was able to use KeePass when I first started my job in 2019, but after I swapped laptops and found I had to get admin permission to install it, and was promptly denied, I was pretty miffed. The IT lord said they were going to implement… some kind of solution, but so far it’s never materialized. I might have to open a BitWarden account just for my work passwords because LastPass has only been a stopgap for me. I can’t believe we don’t have an office-wide password solution because otherwise everyone is going to keep using <<companyname>><<currentyear>>! for everything and that’s just terrible.
While waiting for the IT-lords solution you might try KeeWeb

Self hosted Vaultwarden. It’s great.
Bitwarden user here. I used to use LastPass, but it’s hard to beat free software that does the same thing just as well.
Bitwarden here. Was also a LastPass user. Switched when I retired so I did not have to worry about still keeping any old accounts from work. P.s. Also I like that I can have Bitwarden sync on my phone and my laptop.
I have been using Bitwarden for a long time and never regretted it. If I wanted to have an offline password manager I would look to KeePassXC.
I’m also using Bitwarden currently.
