I've recently been informed that an old website I once created an account on has been compromised, and, oh, they also stored all user passwords in plain text and were likely all stolen. Luckily, I've long replaced that password with several others on any services I currently use. Since I ultimately can't vet most web services I use and check the quality of their password hashing and salt algorithms, I'm thinking it's time to start generating a unique password for pretty much every service I use. What kind of password managers do you use for handling all this?
In the past, I used to maintain them all in a GnuPG encrypted file and edit it through a Vim plugin, but that doesn't synchronize well. Ideally, I'd like something that will store passwords on-disk in an encrypted form and have some way to synchronize the database across devices. I tend to use Linux, macOS, and Android. I also use a mixture of both Firefox and Chrome so it would be nice to have some kind of integration. Oh, and no security application would be complete without being open source! -- Loren M.
