> I think password managers could be easier to use, but that the fundamental problem here is, well, fundamental. [...] To get specialized passwords for all your accounts, you have to be able to reliably use the password manager on all your devices, which means not only configuring it and regenerating passwords the first time, but getting it to work again and synchronize it on every new device you use. All of the major password managers pretty much have the "work again" (use of a saved password) and synchronize part pretty much nailed by now -- good enough for government work anyway. (that's an old US idiom for non-US or millenial folks.) It's really just the first time (enrollment) problem that is the UX bugaboo. It could be solved. So I wouldn't call it a fundamental problem, in the sense that it can't be overcome. I think a solution hasn't been pushed because being able to more thoroughly decipher enrollment forms is a competitive edge. And as long as it's a problem everyone (all password managers) have, that edge can be honed. Password managers are companies also. They need revenue and market share, not universal solutions that also make the job easier for their competitors.
