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.

    I would use a passphrase instead of a password. Make it a meaningful phrase and it’ll be hard to forget.

    I had a password that I committed to muscle memory once… and then my muscle memory disappeared and my brain memory didn’t remember it… and… it was not good… 😅

    Passphrase 1000% I’ve never had trouble remembering my passphrase.

      Do you have a system, or I guess I can say a cipher, for using passphrase? I have one but then I thought what if someone social engineered my cipher, figure it out from whatever beaches or I forgot it?

      Now I just use bitwarden to generate passphrase. At least I can remember that for 30 seconds when there are sites or apps that somehow blocks auto filling. And to never forget the master password
