I don't understand saving your passwords to the cloud in the first place

It is like storing all the passwords in one convenient place that can be accessed from any location on the planet, making it the most convenient and juicy target for hackers.

Even encrypted, it just doesn't make sense.

After years as a family plan subscriber, I moved my personal (1k+) passwords off of LP after the last -- and most egregious -- breach. I have quite a bit self hosted in my environment but Proton Pass interests me as I can get my wife and son in it easily as we already have the family plan. Lemmy is loaded with tech savy, so my question is; same devil different form? I've tried BW but it wasn't condusive to the whole familys use (at least not a few years ago).

This is my problem. I have a family that includes several elderly people. It was a HUGE accomplishment to get them onto LastPass. Nothing more complicated than that’s going to work. Hell I do not want to take the time figure out any self hosting crap.

I’ve tried 1password and hated the UI.

Any other suggestions?
