Okay so yesterday, I changed my password as a precaution because of the hack, and just now I decided to clean my browser tabs and re login and almost forgot my password. I’m done dealing with passwords.

What password manager do you recommend?

Features I’m looking for

-Open Source

-Can be synced to cloud (I don’t want self host)

-Can be accessed via a browser

-Cross platform, the more platforms, the better

-End to End Encrypted, and Encrypted at rest on my device, also need some way to authenticate before releasing the password, like a pin or biometrics

-Autofill for browser and apps

-Free (can be a freemium model, but I need the base tier to be free, too broke to spend money on this lol)

-Can export the passwords to a file

I never used a password manager before so sorry if I seem like a noob.

I know I could google it, but I want the lastest info, not some outdated reddit post.

Edit: Woah, those replies are fast. I think I’ll use Bitwarden. Thanks for recommendations! Now I don’t need to worry about forgetting passwords anymore. 😄

Edit 2: It seems I’ve forgotten my email password as well as a few other accounts I haven’t logged into for a while. Damn, should’ve used a password manager earlier.

    KeeWeb. Compatible with anything that uses KeePass files.

    It checks more than half or even all of your boxes.

    • Free and Open Source, on GitHub.
    • Can be self hosted. Or go to app.keeweb.info.
    • Can be synced to the cloud of your choice. Even supports WebDAV, which is very lightweight.
    • Encrypted at rest and end-to-end. Those clouds don’t have your decryption key. Decryption happens in your browser client-side.
    • Cross platform. Anything that can load a webpage or is compatible with KeePass can use it. It can be bookmarked to the home screen on mobile and it becomes its own app.
    • Auto fill via hotkey on PC.
    • Supports PINs/Multi-Factor Authentication codes.
    • Can attach secret files like backup codes or SSH keys.
    • Can configure how strong the encryption is on the KeePass file.
    • Theme support.
    • Secrets can be exported.

    Edit: in another comment someone mentioned the KeeWeb developer is looking for another maintainer due to their own personal health issues. It’s been stale since mid-2022, while the core is considered still secure there is concern for its dependencies. It can be compiled at home with updated dependencies if that concerns you.
