At least you found a way to feel superior

Haha, wasn’t trying to do that at all. More just “does knowing that X person uses a particular password manager make them more vulnerable”. I’m not in cybersecurity and I know they discourage security by Obfuscation so perhaps not sharing password manager deets falls under that dubious practice and I worry for nothing.
I think most people have a higher chance of being helped out by a nerd-sniped stranger than targeted.

I.e. chances are pretty low of being spotted by someone inclined to do something bad with it, who also has reason to think you're protecting something worthwhile; but the chances of someone on HN telling you you're doing it wrong and it could be trivially done so much more securely..!
