Yes, it saves on the odd site I use once a year and trying to have to remember that.

It's a must.
I've been using Microsoft authenticator for work, and since it was there I also started using it for my personal accounts and passwords as well. It works well enough, never had any issues.

Absolutely worth it. It's the only way to actually adhere to password best practices.
I appreciate Enpass because it allows me to decide where my data is stored while simultaneously synchronizing across all my devices. It's quite impressive. Now, they have incorporated Wi-Fi sync, which eliminates the need for cloud-based synchronization.
KeePassX(C?) both on Windows and Linux. I used the windows version KeePass2 but there was a recent security vulnerability in it so I switched to KeePassX. Maybe it's already patched... auto-type doesn't seem to work in KeePassX on Windows so I might switch back but it's not that critical.

Since i started using KeypassX, My memory just got worse
I’ve been using Bitwarden for years and also use the Apple password manager on my phone and iPad so I have a copy in case something happens.
I also keep some less sensitive work passwords on chrome because I don’t want to open Bitwarden at work.
I've used Keepass or Keepass XC for years. They are great!
And, since KP is offline, you don't have the same security risks as the cloud hosted password managers. If you were really paranoid, you could put your KP database file on a USB so it's never online.
Plus, even if someone were to somehow acquire a current version of your database file, it's heavily encrypted. By the time they crack it you should've changed your passwords anyway.

I don't use a PM because I'm too paranoid about losing access to it (hardware failure, file corruption), thus losing access to all accounts it protects. I end up writing down my passwords on paper. Not the full thing, just a personal reminder.
The real irony is that an "easily stolen" piece of paper is safer than anything i leave on my computer or phone
Using Bitwarden here. All is good but sometimes the auto-fill feature doesn't work well.

Bitwarden.
I've been using 1password ever since it was first released on iOS and I gotta say it's awesome! Whatever you use, stay far away from Lastpass ... they are a security nightmare.
I don't know how someone can remember secure passwords without a password manager.. My password manager 10 years ago was basically a text file. Moving to Bitwarden from LastPass the only thing I miss is easily creating a folder when saving a new credential.
