> any better than reusing a password It is. That way you only trust your password manager and not every single app you use (that can easily dump your password when you login, or might even store it as plaintext). If a password manager is open source and you know how to audit it, you could do that. Otherwise you can ask somebody you trust who knows better. > what if you lose access to it or the data with your keys That is a possibility indeed. You should make backups, of course.
