[ashishpatel]

been using bitwarden for over 2 years and havent looked back. works for what i need in the free version.

This video (and part 2) convinced me to use BitWarden. I've been using it since then without a single regret.

[spaceiswater]

I have been using Bitwarden for some years now and I love it.

[PolakeXD]

I have used Bitwarden for my trashaway accounts and all of my forum accounts but I never got any problems.
I really love the fact, that Bitwarden source code is publicly available for everyone.

If you're using Firefox, then you can use it's automatically generated password feature and after pressing the "create account" button, then Bitwarden will ask you if you want to save the password and it gets the job a lot of times done but sometimes it messes up with the login credential like mixing up Username with E-mail or Email with your address but it never messed up any of my passwords

I setup vaultwarden in a docker image...then did a cloudflare tunnel and voila...100% complete https support and it works like a boss!
Good video....thanks

Great job guys, I have been using BitWarden for several months after having paid LastPass and Keeper accounts which are now overpriced, (LP free is too limited - 20 PWs?), then to KeePass and now BitWarden which I like so much better and they were free. I upped to BW premium after a brief trial to support them since I use their product daily. A friend uses and recommended mSecure which I have not tried but wondered what you guys thought about it even though I am not switching because it does not fit my personal needs. Keep up the good work! subscribed

How do we know Bitwarden isn't paying you to say this?

[DonovanCYoung]

There is no such thing as a free lunch; if you don't know what service you're paying for, you _are_ the service.

5:20 - Wow, that actually aged well. Spot on prediction about the pricing change :) LastPass in its free tier has now become useless due to the multiple device restriction.

[awesometuts]

at 6:20 you said that you should only be worried about one which is firefox. I saw this from other people as well, but can you tell me why firefox is a better browser to use than other browsers out there?

[TzZek]

Been using for a little over a year, after switching from Lastpass, would never go back.

[YoungBud]

enpass is also a great alternative to 1password its cross platform. moved to linux a while ago and a good password manager was a must for me to switch from osx to linux

I paid $101 Cdn for 1Password 4 years ago, and I like BitWarden much better. 1Password started demanding money for a monthly subscription account of you wanted their latest update, and the interface gave me some problems. I love the interface of Bitwarden, and the password generator is more accessible, I don't have to have it on the Mac menu bar.

LOL, saying it's the best podcast out there, unbiased when you're both hosting it, said with a straight face, takes some skill ;-)

[mooselexus]

Hey there, your thought on RoboForm?
And Kaspersky Password Manager?

[barkingbandicoot]

If they offered disposable emails as well, I would sign up immediately! I want more than a password generator and manager, I want a one click email generator also. Passwords will protect your accounts but using the same email is not going to protect you from spam and give you better privacy.

[SSwadhin]

I'm 100% biased for without any reason. Destination Linux is the best linux video podcast around.
