How would I go about transferring my stored passwords from Chrome to Firefox?

[–] rk96@lemmy.one 14 points 1 year ago

When you first install Firefox, it offers it during the initial setup

Switch to a dedicated password manager - Bitwarden for example.

Then you can try any browser. Firefox definitely wouldn't be my choice but it is better than Chrome.

What browser would you recommend then?

[–] milkjug@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I will always shill for Bitwarden and will die on this hill. Free for most features and for $10 a year you get TOTP generation and the integration is so bloody well thought-through. Insane value and two thumbs up (or three, if I move to Fukushima).

Cross device, works with biometrics… da bomb.

It's a good idea to stop storing your passwords in your browser and use a password manager instead.

You can export from Chrome as a CSV file then import to Firefox.
