If you change your password, but your password manager fails to capture it did you really even change your password? According to the system? Yes, you very much did.

A password manager that doesn't capture a password is about as useful as an indicator on a BMW.

Didn't they have a massive data breach 2 years ago? I swear it was them.

Yes, I believe so. I CERTAINLY wouldnt use it personally. But its more a point to my security team: Either block it, or endorse a corporate solution. Till then im not *technically * doing anything wrong.

At least LastPass asks you if you want to update your password after you've changed it.

I'm using 1password and much prefer it. But it asks when the password is generated. What if the password field has a bunch of rules I need to follow and have to make edits after?

Check out Bitwarden. Free and pretty decent.

There's Keepas as well that's meant to be the FOSS alternative. I might go with that or bitwarden when I habe my selfhosted setup and can sync between devices
