1. I use one of the very original ones that has no corporate ties and I choose NOT to back it up online but

only to an external hard drive and to two other devices besides my laptop. Some may laugh but I think this is the most secure way to do it, whether you just love giving Norton $300 or more/year or someone else--something that I am really resenting nowadays.

So, in answer to your question, I have used Ascendo Datavault for 20 years (at least). It will generate passwords for you no matter how intricate or how many characters. Otherwise, it is probably "no frills," but it works and is very reliable.

3. That's exactly what I do

I have passwords going back decades to which I still refer, from time to time. It also generates passwords which will satisfy the most arcane letter/number requirements.

I use PasswordSafe. It's a freebie https://www.pwsafe.org/

4. That s my password manager choice on the Mac and IOS as well.

I, too, do not back up to the cloud. either, only to an external hard drive.

2. I have used Lastpass for several years.

Free and works well as long as you remember your master password.

5. I use Samurai Safe on mac and ios. Free

Storing the password safe in icloud syncs it, but I keep local copies on devices with version numbers "just in case"

7. I am trying to figure this out as my smarter brother has stressed that it is important to do. I'm looking at 1passwor

It’s supposed to be easy and safe. Here’s the tutorial. For me anyway I find it daunting. But I know it. It’s necessary and I will do it.

8. I use two password managers for storing passwords

I use Password Safe on my cell phone and Bitwarden on my iPad. Whenever I change a password or need one for a new website I enter the information on Password Safe and Bitwarden. That way, if the cell phone or iPad goes kaput I still have access to my password. I use the same master password to access both password programs so I won't have to remember which is which.
