Why don't web browsers have good password managers (like keepass or bitwarden) built in? It seems like a good solution would be to make random password generators more usabile than to throw out the baby with the bath water.

- clircle 5y agoThanks, yes. I'm a firefox user and I had no idea about this. Just goes to show that these kinds of software should be more usable, discoverable.

- clircle 5y agoSure, but why aren't people using them? There's a disconnect between implementation and usage.
