Uh, oh.

I had totally forgotten what LastPass was as I moved to Bitwarden, and good thing I did.

And that's why you should never store your important passwords online.

Thank god I moved to bitwarden when they crippled their free tier, their android app was ass to boot.

So good I paid $10 for a year, more so as a donation than actually using the premium features.

yea same, but whos to say bitwarden isn't next... in the end you can never really trust having your passwords on someone elses servers.

You are right, they could very well be the next provider that gets breached, that is the nature of storing data in the cloud. That being said I'd rather put my faith into a company that has good ethics, has been security audited and has open sourced their code rather than a company that has an extremely bad track record with multiple security flaws plaguing each and every one of their various programs (I'm aware that LP is now separate from LogMeIn but I still wouldn't trust them).

yea, i follow the same logic. for now at least...

will probably switch to something like KeePass soon, or self host a bitwarden instance.
