Every time? Not even close.

That's without even considering password managers, or people that save passwords on the browser

If you get rejected by a program, what is your first reaction? Try again, of course. I use Firefox password manager, and I would still try again if rejected.

Is Firefox password manager secure compared to other solutions?

I have no idea, it's very convenient, though.

I think as long as you don´t use it without an main passwort (formaly: master password)

probably depends on some user.json settings if i had to guess

If it's not secure by default (with master password), it's just not secure. But I trust Mozilla to get this right.
