My browser’s password manager was good enough until it wasn’t
For years, I never thought about using a dedicated password manager. My browser's built-in password manager had all my passwords. After all, it could save my passwords, generate stronger ones, and fill them in whenever I wanted to log in. On top of that, it was built into something I used every day. I found that extremely convenient. That said, sometimes I would hit a wall.

I started with an old Kindle whose model I can't even remember, then a Fire tablet, then my 2018 Paperwhite that still sits in a leather case on my desk.
