My biggest reason for not using 1Password, Lastpass, etc, is that they are all walled gardens. If any go under, you lose the service and everything locked away in it. Since they're based on proprietary shit, it is lost for good.
That's way bigger (and simpler to understand), to me, than the corporate drama that the author drums up to justify ditching it.
- cheeze 8y agoI use BitWarden with monthly (manual) backups that I encrypt and store on my NAS

- nathan_f77 8y agoI love using LastPass, and it's very easy to export all of your passwords and notes as CSV. If they go under, it would be easy to migrate to a different service. A quick Google search brings up many API clients for KeePass, so it should be simple to read the CSV and import all my passwords into KeePass. I used to use KeePass, but I think LastPass is much nicer and more convenient. I also like using the LastPass Authenticator app for 2FA.
