I've been eyeing them as a Gmail replacement, but I've been happy with my VPN and password management providers. As this reduces the bundle makes more sense. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [+] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 30 points 2 years ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] foggenbooty@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago That's a good practice, and I think you're right that is what they're going for. I don't think that means you shouldn't consider them, but it does lower their value proposition as the bundle is the better deal. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Caboose12000@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago* this isnt a full solution obviously, but I figured it'd be nice to know: Proton lets you set different passwords for your email and password manager, so at least from a security standpoint its not all behind the same password, even if it is still from the same company permalink fedilink source parent [–] Artaca@lemdro.id 1 point 2 years ago* It's not open source, but I got a lifetime license for Enpass over a decade ago and it's done everything I've ever needed it for. I think stacksocial occasionally has new lifetime codes for sale. I like the idea of Proton Pass as others have said, but it feels a bit like putting all my eggs in one basket, which is a mistake I already made with Google before (context: I use Proton for email). I think Keepass is the next best option if dedicated to staying FOSS. permalink fedilink source parent
