The autofill prompt in browsers like librewolf. Or should you save passwords with a manager? I like the aspect of autofilling passwords and certain data.

Well I mean only when you have a master password for them, otherwise even if they are encrypted, one can just decrypt them like the browser would. Am I mistaken? Because in my mind storing passwords in browser is basically a password manager without the encryption…
password managers in the browser still store them encrypted. They usually authenticate via a passkey, in-built security in the OS like windows hello, or through other services such as SSO through google; That said, if you have them on auto-pilot with this authentication, anyone with access to the device can theoretically access them, though to actually view them in the password manager they usually require you to authenticate.
Browser password managers are sorta less secure than a third party one, assuming you turn on all the convenience features to make your life easier, but a lot of third-party password managers have the same convenience features a lot of the time anyways.
