Might I ask what password manager you use? And what do you do when you need to access websites from a machine that isn't yours? Also, did you consider the single-point-of-failure argument? I would like to know your opinion on that.
- 8ytecoder 6y agoNot OP. I’ve been using 1Password for about 13 years now. I have the app on my phone and I can view the password and type it manually in a machine I don’t own. It’s inconvenient but it works.
- Shared404 6y agoAlso not OP, but I use pass. If I need to access accounts from a different machine I use termux and manually type it in. I'm not worried about it being a single point of failure (Data loss wise), as I have the password store backed up in multiple places. Security wise, I'm trading out my brain as a single point of failure for pass being a single point of failure. I trust pass more.
- leipert 6y agoUsed lastpass back then, now Enpass with sync across devices (tablet, phone, PC). Regular backups of the Enpass file into a folder that is synced to my NAS. Wanted to look into other password managers, preferably open source, but at the time Enpass had the best syncing options combined with a good enough user interface that’s suitable for less tech folks. Edit: I mainly use all the things on my devices, and don’t try to use things from untrusted devices. The only use cases with untrusted are: - copy shop -> Sending the file via share drop - PC of a Family member -> manually typing password from phone.
