I have finally decided to move to a proper password manager. But it’s kinda scary, you know, to export all you passwords in one place and if you mess up a bit you might lose all of your passwords especially when they said once I lose my master password there is no way to recover it.

So, what are some precautions I should take before moving to Bitwarden? Did you ever lose your account? Share your experiences.

    Making the MP hint obvious makes it pointless, in regards to the security to every password you have stored.

      It’s kinda only source to my MP and not making it kinda obvious might lock me out is my thinking.

        I understand your point but if it’s obvious, it’s likely easily-guessable and although you are thinking in terms of regaining access to your account, it’s just as important to keep other people from being able to gain access to your account by either guessing it or using social engineering to retrieve the answer.
