> Many password managers, the good ones anyway, store their customers’ passwords on their servers in an encrypted format. The best password manager services store them so securely that not even they can access your passwords if you forget your master password.
And even better ones keep a local copy of your passwords encrypted on your devices. If my password manager ever went down, I could access my passwords on any device that has it configured (phone, desktop, both laptops), and export them in the worse case scenario.
I only really need to worry when I travel. If I lose access to my password manager while traveling, I would certainly have problems. However, that would require my phone, laptop, and the online service to be unavailable at the same time, which seems very unlikely.
