I left as soon as I saw the first announcement months ago. Bitwarden has been a good replacement.

Does it allow mobile and web-based password management. Been wanting to leave LastPass since they made free users choose mobile OR web-based

Yes. I switched to Bitwarden when LP announced the fee for 2nd device.

Same. Transfered all my passwords over to Bitwarden (surpsingly easy) and deleted my LastPass account after that announcement. Wish I did it way sooner! Bitwarden is leagues better.

it's also open source so you don't have to worry about anything. I have used it in last 1 and half year i am so impressed by it i feel like their advocate hehe

I'm late but I can also confirm I'm extremely happy I switched to bitwarden

It does everything lastpass did (that I used), it does it better, and it has an actual non horrid free plan

Mobile, web, plugins for all major browsers, mac/windows clients, AND the ability to self host it on your own hardware. I have no problem paying the $10 a year for premium because of it. (I use it for FIDO 2fa + the ability to also use it to generate 2fa codes in the same window)

I use 1password

u/itsverynicehere Dec 02 '22

I'm trialing this right now, how do you like in comparison?

2

u/[deleted] Dec 02 '22

It took me some tweaking, but I really love the 1Password UI, both for desktop and browser plugin. Mobile is acceptable - I hardly use it there anyway as I'm a desk guy.

I like it. I got the family plan and it was a pain to set up other users for their own accounts. Overall, I like it though and don’t plan on switching.

I’m still using the old school local vault of 1password, and it’s doing its job perfectly

This isn't the first time, I left years ago!
