Bitwarden vs LastPass
The winner takes it all (and hides it) in the battle of the password managers
Bitwarden keeps your passwords secure, and frees you from remembering them all.

PASSWORD MANAGERS are, we think, generally a good thing. Remembering adsofpjdp is one thing, but also committing 4256p4m2glm! and paLsdKfnk26& to memory is quite another. Keeping your passwords strong and changing them regularly is important these days, when you can check on a website whether or not you’ve been “pwned,” and Chrome harasses you with your unfeasibly large number of compromised passwords.
Web browsers, the front line in the war between password and jailbird, have been able to remember your passwords for a while now, and can generate strong passwords that you’ll never be expected to remember. This is fine until you try to log in on a different system, or using your cell phone, and have to dig in the browser settings to view the password that it recorded for you.
There’s another benefit of password managers: they tend to come backed with some sort of internet security suite or browser plugin. They also make it easy to manage your passwords, syncing across devices, generating new ones, and hiding everything behind a master password—which is the only one you need to remember. You can also use them to hide encrypted notes, too.
