Title: lastpass
Post by: fox on May 24, 2019, 08:43:26 AM
Anyone using this app for password storage? I just found out that it works with every major computer and mobile platform. It looks pretty good, even from a privacy perspective. There is a free version and the premium version is only $50/yr.

I use KeepassX.

I keep the file in my Dropbox folder so that I can access the Keepass file on any of my computers or cell phone, wherever I go.
I use Keepass to store other sensitive info that I may need, besides just passwords.

Does anyone else use it? Check my last presentation. :) I've been using LastPass for many years. I've been quite happy with it. It's $36 USD for a year for a single user for the premium version, $48 USD per year for the family version (up to 6 users). I use it in Linux, Windows and on my Android phones and tablets.

Out of curiosity, what feature of the paid version has you using it over the free version?

Being able to use it with a YubiKey. The free version has a 2FA but using other methods other than a hardware-based key. That and I just want to support the company. $3/month isn't a lot to ask.
