honestly i believe the reason so many people are never gonna switch from google is because so many services allow you to use your google as an easy one click register/login. its so convenient that i have friends who’d rather have all their privacy be infringed than to give that up.
not to mention the dozens of services google provides themselves, from maps to mail to search to whatever the fuck
similar to apple, its an ecosystem. one of convenience.
I do use Bitwarden, and in my experience of >1 year, it’s good enough. It sometimes doesn’t save automatically and if you save (for example) a McDonalds login on PC, it won’t offer to fill on their app. Also you cant save new passwords offline which is a pretty rare situation but it made me want to rip my hair out (granted I didn’t have enough food that day so I was angry to begin with).
Minor gripes for sure, but Google doesn’t have the same annoyances. Not worth going back to Google though.
I guess I’ve always just made the new passwords in Bitwarden and have it fill in the form rather than fill in the form and let Bitwarden save it. Do you not use generated passwords?
Can’t help you on the offline thing, I see how that would be annoying.

It’s called the Googleverse.
Many people don’t know the difference between the Google search bar and the URL bar anymore.
100%. it’s SO annoying to remember passwords especially when my phone doesn’t auto save them 50% of the time because it doesn’t feel like it.
Why doesn’t everyone just use a better manager like Lastpass or Bitwarden, it’s super easy to use.
