I've been torn between 1Password and LastPass. Which do you feel is better and why?

@Averly @Admin @djsundog @twitter 1Password is excellent. I love that the team publishes whitepapers and file formats, rather than counting on attackers not figuring out how it works.

@tek @Admin @djsundog @twitter

Good to know. Thx!

Any (other) disadvantages to using LastPass? I can't really afford 1Password at the moment ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@Averly @Admin @djsundog @twitter You can use iCloud to sync your devices (with some limitations that you likely won't care about) for free: support.1password.com/sync-wit

@tek @djsundog @twitter @averly @admin <3 1Password. I adore that I can have an local on-disk vault and then copy/delete individual passwords up to their cloud thing as I need them.

@sungo @Admin @Averly @twitter @djsundog I pay for a family account which lets us do things like share the Netflix passwords with everyone seamlessly, or share a young kid's game website password with the kid, my wife, and I (but not the other kids).

@tek why would you pay for that vs just airdropping the specific passwords you wanna share?

@Admin Simplicity. They're always in sync, and we don't have to get everyone in the same room to do it.

I adopted 1Password before anyone else in my household, so a lot of our family passwords were only in my own copy. Don't know how many times now my wife's texted to ask for the $X password, and at my desk at work I can move it to the shared "Mom & Dad" vault. A few seconds later, "thanks!"

@tek @Admin

I believe LastPass does the same and for free. Correct me if I'm wrong?

@Averly @tek @Admin i'm not so confident about cloud storage you don't have control over. i would suggest using keepass with a private cloud like nextcloud if you need the convenience. i've been doing something similar for years with no issues whatsoever. some deeper thoughts on the subject here:
