Password fatigue is real. Luckily it doesn't need to exist to still use secure passwords. Here are our 4 favorite password managers:
✅ @Proton_Pass
✅ @Bitwarden
✅ @1Password
✅ @KeePass
All providers allow easy import/export - so shop around and see which works best for you!

Speaking of monumental failings, I'm not going to go into the details, and definitely won't be the first to tell you (h/t @tayvano_), but if you are still storing anything on LastPass then you need to migrate to a new password manager immediately.
In general, centralized password managers are problematic due to being a honeypot for attackers. It takes just as much effort to compromise a single user as it does to compromise the entire user base. If you must choose a managed service, bias toward one with a better track record of security and protecting user data (e.g. @Proton_Pass).
A better alternative is a self-hosted, free, open-source password manager such as @KeePassXC (h/t @LefterisJP). To ensure availability across multiple devices, simply store a copy of your encrypted database file in your own cloud storage solution of choice (e.g. iCloud, Google Drive, DropBox, OneDrive, etc.).
There are also paid services such as @StrongboxSafe which offers additional features for KeePassXC databases such as autofill, sync, YubiKey support, and lots more.
If you own a lot of Apple devices and don't want to worry about keeping a database file safe, their new Passwords app may also be a good option; however, note that unlike the alternatives mentioned above it does not have a dedicated master password which could be an issue if your device is stolen or your iCloud account is compromised.

I am using Strongbox over a year and couldn’t be more satisfied. Using on 5 iOS devices and Mac. Never failed once. I don’t trust cloud based password managers anymore.

.@MicrosoftEdge has added support to access passkeys from your Apple ID in version 125.
Along with your iCloud Keychain passkeys, you can now access passkeys from credential managers like @StrongboxSafe in Edge.
Available in Microsoft Edge Canary now!

4/ Strongbox: If you're using KeePass as password safe (it's open source), then check out Strongbox on Mac. The free version is great, not much need to update to pro for your personal environment. Powerful feature set and easy to use. strongboxsafe.com/

A big deal.

Passkeys are now available in public beta. Opting in lets you upgrade security keys to passkeys, and use those in place of both your password and your 2FA method.” github.blog/2023-07-12-intro…

Managing passwords and staying secure can be a real challenge. A new ASEC @PurdueExtension publication from Alexander Master of @cerias explores how password managers can help. bit.ly/3xXvE7n

LastPass change last week may see a lot of their users migrate to other services... Personally, their sudden move convinced me to switch to @KeePassXC and @StrongboxSafe. @Bitwarden will probably benefit from it too... debugger.medium.com/you-need…

There is no such thing as a backdoor that only lets the good guys in. Together with @Tresorit, @ThreemaApp and @TutanotaTeam, we are calling on EU policy makers to rethink anti-encryption proposals that would introduce backdoors in encryption platforms: protonmail.com/blog/joint-st…

Happy subscriber here. The ongoing development and security fixes, together with my peace of mind, are well worth the modest subscription fee, IMHO!
