Also, is everyone going to create a correlated entry every time they make a new account?"
This is not how pass or KeePass work. I recommend you try them out and see if they're really that hard to use (hint: they're not).
If you really like browser integration, I also sometimes recommend using the built-in Chrome or Firefox password managers with good master passwords. They're actually easier to use than LastPass and its insecure ilk.
- cookiecaper 10y agoI've used KeePass for years. Am I using it all wrong or what? That's how it works on my computer. Yes, you could install a browser extension that interfaces out to KeePass (and I've used those in the past too), but that doesn't give much, if any, security benefit over LastPass; you're still exposing the attack surface to the browser's environment. I do actually also use Chrome's built-in password manager so that I don't have to copy and paste as much.
