I really don't understand the point of these cloud password managers. Use something like KeepassX. Encrypt it with AES256, upload it to Dropbox, Google Drive, whatever. I personally throw the encrypted p/w file in an encrypted MacOS disk image with a secondary, separate memorized passphrase as well. Literally solves the problem without having to trust or pay some random sketchy service.
- Fire-Dragon-DoL 4y agoSharing with family sucks with these. No permission control and no simultaneous write from multiple devices make those unusable
- j45 4y agoWouldn't most of the use cases be reading, instead of writing? I have seen people create multiple files on a share that works fine. I wasn't too keen on it at first but it did seem to work OK.
- Fire-Dragon-DoL 4y agoI create accounts quite often, so I would expect collisions to happen, the cost of mistake is high. The other problem is that there is stuff you want for yourself, stuff shared with your partner, stuff shared with all the family (children included) and stuff shared 1-on-1 with each child. That gets messy quickly.
