After rolling out its password manager to a limited number of users in April, Proton has finally released the service to the general public. The tool, called Proton Pass, uses end-to-end encryption to keep your usernames and passwords away from third parties, including Proton itself. It also lets you create and store randomly generated email aliases that you can use in place of your real address.

    I agree, seems sensible though no big deal otherwise. But to be honest i never trusted any cloud provider with my personal passwords and always just managed my own KeePass database by syncing it myself.

        I’m not sure if BitWarden was available (or at least it was unknown to me) at the time i created my KeePass database - so it’s just historical.

        KeePass isn’t hosted, you just have a database file (*.kdbx file) you have to sync yourself (if you want) - i used Syncthing in the past, now i have a small Nextcloud instance which has a webinterface and clients / apps to access it from anywhere and sync stuff between devices if i want.
