If you have a Mac use keychain. I never understood why Mac users use external tools.. I mean really? Why? Perhaps if you manage a team at work ok.. but single user subscriptions?
For Linux and windows i would use keepassx.

- outcoldman 4y agoThere are several issues with the macOS/iOS Keychain: - it does not understand that some accounts are used on multiple domains, does not allow you to modify domains, or have more than one. For example something like microsoft.com, live.com, microsoftpassword.com. I believe maybe microsoft cleaned it up and use now only one domain, but websites like that still exist. - multiple accounts for the same website, just need to have a title to name them. Say you have 2 AWS account and each has a user root. How would you identify them? - password sharing is a big issue as well, within the family.
- Adraghast 4y agoI briefly moved to Keychain from 1Password when they went Electron, but the experience of actually managing credentials is so bad in comparison that the experiment lasted less than three months. At minimum, Apple needs to make Keychain a standalone app instead of a half-baked settings dialog for it to even be considered an option imo.
