just adding that granted FF already has a decent password manager there are also reliable, free and open source and audited independent password manager like as
- Bitwarden (remote service as basic or premium plan, optionally self hosted, user friendly service, very likely has some account migration wizard tool to help importing data from browsers) and
- KeepassXC (local, user managed, a bit techy)
which both can plug in any browser through their respective extension.
Being both an independent option from the browser they help the user not making him vendor locked to his browser through his saved data.
Plot twist: Bitwarden on desktop is Chromium browser based.
Still can be used in FF as plugin.
Good to know! I’ve never installed bitwarden desktop and always used the Firefox extension. I just recently found out that Bitwarden has a desktop app. I was thinking of trying it out, until I read your comment. I think I’ll just stick with the extension. Thank you for your TED talk.
Pretty much every web-app wrapped into a desktop environment uses Electron, which is based in Chromium.
There’s also KeePass2Android. I opted for this because it brings a very useful feature called QuickUnlock. Your opened database gets locked in standby but you can reopen it with just the last 3 characters without needing to retype the whole passphrase.
