    It’s generally one piece of software, a browser extension, that works for all. Even mobile apps are often just webpages with extra steps, so the code base is the same.

    The underlying storage must be encrypted the same way on each.

    Yes, there are still potentially issues. I’ll come back to what I said at the start: passwords are a bad system in general, all methods for handling them are flawed, but password managers have the fewest flaws.

      Well that I can actually mostly agree on, IDK how we got into a disagreement on that in principle? For me personally though, I trust myself more, than a software manager. I’m pretty sure my passwords are strong enough, even if a software manager can make even stronger passwords.
