We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
LastPass just announced a price increase to $36/year.

I bought 1Password 7 on a standalone, perpetual, non-subscription license. You just have to contact customer service to do it.
Backblaze also announced a price raise. At least they allow the option to extend your sub for a year for the old price.
I paid the $10 fee for Bitwarden, and found out it was a waste for me. I couldn't get the crytokey to work properly, and never got the NFC function working.
I should have gone with free service and just use Authy app for 2FA.
Ever since iOS started keeping my passwords for me, these password managers became irrelevant as fuck
It's contextual and works in apps as well

It cost me $39.99 last May when it released. I'm not sure if it was on a promotion at the time or not.
But it doesn't work cross platform, which is why I need a 3rd party app. iOS 12 added full native OS integration for 3rd party password managers. Anywhere you can use iOS Keychain, you can now use any provider of your choosing (that has an iOS app and supports the integration). It's great!
How's the quality of the Lastpass Firefox extension? I heard it was really bad and saw some reviews about how it made the browser lag and used a lot of resources.
I recently switched from Chrome to Firefox and I've been using Dashlane as I heard it was better than LP, but it has a very poor webapp and I don't want to install the desktop app.

I'm able to use two factor no problem on the free tier. You may be limited to what types I guess but I've been using an Authenticator a without any issue.
Really I don't think there are a lot of feature differences between free and premium anymore. That's why in part I ended my paid subscription. There used to be some mobile differences I think.
LastPass is one of those weird situations where I'd happily pay for it considering how useful it is and how often I use it, but there's not a single Premium feature that I would use. The free service is too comprehensive.
There is no limit. I'm using the free version and have a little over 100 passwords in it.
I'm still surprised how devoted people are to services like this. I've got like 3 passwords that mean anything to me, the rest are just social media and other stuff I don't really care about. (Like resetera, for example. If anyone stole my identity here, I'd just write it off and make a new account. I don't know anyone from real life, so who cares?)
How much is it?
EDIT: 39$ you say? Hmm, will message the customer service now!
I use Roboform as well, it's less popular but it's probably been around the longest. Been using it for over 3 years and some of our clients have used it for 8-9 years. There's a free version but I paid for it so I can sync seamlessly across all my devices and wife's devices. The iPhone app on my wife's phone, the browser plugins, desktop app, tablets are work perfect. There's Two factor authentication and other features so for $24 a year it's worth it for my wife and I. It's on sale for $18 right now. If anyone is interested in getting a 6 month extension for signing up let me know, I can PM you a referral link.
Someone else made a similar comment and in previous threads this comment comes up. But for me at a certain point it became overwhelming. Do you have multiple credit cards, mortgage , bank , retirement , investment accounts, crypto accounts, phone bill, utility bills, home/car insurance, email accounts tied to the previously mentioned accounts? Do you buy from different websites like Amazon, Newegg, Paypal, Visa Pay...the list goes on and on (I work in IT so I have over 400+ logins which includes work and family.) Each site I use has a different long complex password generated by the password manager in addition to two factor for each site that has it available, it gives me a bit more peace of mind. Can't imagine using the same couple of passwords for 100+ sites.
Just moved from lastpass to 1password few days ago. You can easily export a cvs file with all your passwords and import it in to another service very easily.
Free is definitely more than enough and most of the users I guess.
And I'll echo people talking the many passwords one might have. Got about a hundred PW saved up and I only started using LP about a year ago - I'm sure there are quite a few of my PW that haven't yet made the jump.

LastPass works incredibly well in the free tier too so why should one switch?
Your stuff not being stored in the "cloud" and having total control over your data.
Jesus Christ, I signed up at $12. It auto-renews in a few days, and the price has tripled? That's too much, ya'll.
Guess I'll be looking into the free version, because this seems straight greedy.

I use the free version for a few years now. It works on mobile, unlimited passwords, multifactor... no idea what else I would need honestly.
I used to use KeePass - is there a handy Android app that makes KeePass as functional and convenient as LastPass? Also last time I checked the browser addons for KeePass are not that great either.

A shame but ultimately not wrong to do. You'd rather a company make money selling a clear product than be forced to move into the surveillance economy. I know that we expect everything to be free for life these days, but there's a secret cost to all of those free products. For some things the surveillance economy is a fine trade off. Want free GPS? Well, it's going to track you and report back. But for a password keeper that's a massive risk.
I used to have premium when they required premium for mobile, but when that requirement stopped I cancelled and went to normal. I don't use ubikeys or physical keys so indont really have a need yet.

Nah the free version allows unlimited sites best I can tell... I'm tracking over 6000 websites/logins. That person was just making a comment about how many sites they use it for, presumably just 'secure' sites and then use normal unsecure passwords for anything else.
But you still need a way to sync them no? If you're just using any other cloud provider it's a moot point
There is no reason for normal users to subscribe to premium. I have been a free user for 4 years
For me the value is having a hosted password repository that the company is dedicated to security with. Managers tied to a single point of failure (or low number) arent worth it for me, and any cloud infrastructure I use to back them up or host them will be less secure than LastPass which takes security way more seriously than any other typical consumer cloud host.
Even if there is a surefire solution, Id rather the 'set it and forget it' mentality for something like my passwords, as opposed to me needing to be diligent staying on top of security changes.
Its pretty crap. One reason I switched to Bitwarden when I recently ditched Chrome for Firefox.
