  LastPass is very very far from dead. It is the market leader, multiple times larger than the runner up. [1] (But this is HN.... Facts shouldn't get in the way of a good story!)

    Easier to brute force a password against a local archive than a login portal, but if you have a good password, should? Be? Safe? For? A? Few? Years?

    It's paywalled, but that is last year's data. I think the straw that broke the camel's back for many people is December 2022, on the Thursday before Christmas. On a personal angle, I tried renewing LastPass personal this year, payment failed, so I switched to another. I don't expect them to lose much ground though. Something like a password manager will have some very strong lock in inertia, but it's telling that people actually take the effort to move away from it.
