I switched recently to Bitwarden. 1Passwords pricing/subscription changes was the the push I needed.

Bitwarden has been fantastic, I highly recommend it.

Same, but decided not to use the TOTP feature so that the password manager isn't a single point of failure.

$2.99 per month is too steep of a price to pay for your personal security? Really? I'd dump my Spotify/Apple Music/Netflix/whatever in a heartbeat, if I had to choose between paid subscriptions in my life

$3 per month can be a lot of money, depending on where you live and your financial situation.

Bitwarden is free as in a beer and free as in speech. Only if you want the 2FA features you need a subscription.

Then Bitwarden costs 10 USD per year. That's approx as much as 1Password asks for 3 months. Ie. Bitwarden is almost 4 times as cheap.

For that price you get a very good program with an open source frontend, and an open source backend (third party, in Ruby).

And Lastpass, after they were acquired by LogMeIn, has the balls to go from 12 USD/year to 24 USD/year. Without any additional features whatsoever a 100% price increase? That's why I went shopping. And I ended up at Bitwarden.

I'm selling water bottles at $100/gallon. Considering water is literally essential to life, how many can I get you?

You must have had better ones than _that_, when you were thinking up a witty reply. I hope that wasn't you bringing your best.

What immodesty; to presume oneself to be worthy of the best.

Rather: why half-ass anything in life?
