We use Vaultwarden and Bitwarden to share passwords with the family. My wife has my master password and I have hers.
The bigger issue if I drop dead is all the nontrivial tech crap I have set up (self hosted Vaultwarden included…).
- karussell 8mo agoHonest question: what is the benefit of such a specialized service compared to just an encrypted file with all your passwords that you share via some common file sharing service (hosted or self-hosted)
- mawax 8mo agoA few years ago I switched from KeePass, with the database stored in Dropbox, to a SaaS password manager. My primary reasons where: - No more sync conflicts when using multiple devices - Backups are taken care off - It's harder to steal the database - Slightly better browser and mobile extensions for auto-filling passwords
- Yodel0914 8mo agoWell, we already use password managers for all their benefits: autofill, syncing, password generation, passkey storage etc. For a while we’re using `pass` which doesn’t have an easy way to share passwords, so my wife and I had duplicates of a handful of passwords, which was annoying when they changed, or when we needed to share a new one. Moving to Bitwarden meant that we can have a set of passwords that are shared, and we can update or add to it. As the kids have gotten older, I’ve get them using it too, so we can share a small set of passwords with them (wifi, streaming services etc).
