There are tradeoffs to all software.
I use lastpass with a yubikey for 2fa and I feel safe enough. I briefly looked at other password managers when I was evaluating lastpass, but convenience won out for me. I haven't looked at moving out of lastpass, but 3 years ago no other password manager came close to the mobile and platform support that lastpass had.
I considered keeping my passwordDB local, but the inconvenience of needing it and not having it wasn't it worth it to me. Do I know I'm making a tradeoff? Yes.
I also have a nasty habit of setting things up on a local server and then never updating it. Instead I decided that lastpass was worth the $12/year so I wouldn't have to manage anything locally.
So while lastpass may not be perfect security, I'm a lot better off than I was three years ago when I used the same few passwords everywhere.
It also helps me share passwords with my wife, so that's nice.
