They are totally necessary - if you don't use the same passwords across the internet I mean.
How many accounts do you have on the web? I can count at least twenty accounts that I have and use from a variety of services. Keeping different usernames, emails (through alias) and passes in mind is no easy task, so a good password manager is absolutely needed.
People are recommending Bitwarden and I can't say it's bad, truly, it's a really secure and private alternative. Although, in my opinion, keeping a offline safe for your accounts is way better because only you have the absolute control over all the credentials. I use KeePassDX on my PC and phone, synced by Synching, and being loving it for some years still.
Do you use something to automatically load the password from KeePass in the browser? I've been using KeePass for a few years bc I don't trust cloud password storages but my work started using 1Password and the convenience of having the passwords kinda easy there for you on browser forms is really enticing.
Yes, I do! I use this extension for Firefox (there's a link to chrome web store too).
Also, on Android, the KeePassDX has a autofill option.
Thank you.
