Do a search on "LastPass breaches" to see the problem. Put simply, LastPass has demonstrated that its security infrastructure — both software and DevOps — is not robust enough to warrant trust.

Moreover, its management appears substantially more interested in minimising negative publicity than ensuring client safety. In short, LastPass cannot and should not be entrusted with your passwords. I used them for over a decade, but have now moved to the open-source BitWarden.

It was a suprisingly smooth transfer, apart from having to change all the passwords that LastPass's breaches compromised.

o.k.

I have LastPass on desktop and laptop. The desktop extension's passwordless login continually crashes, freezing Firefox and forcing me to reboot.

I have have uninstalled and reinstalled the extension three times now, with the same issue coming up each time.

The extension in Vivaldi and Chrome does not cause this problem, nor do I have a problem in Firefox on my laptop.

My frustration level is growing exponential and it may be time to find a more reliable alternative

It used to be quite good, but now it either fails to log me in or runs incredibly slowly. I don't think this is down to their website, as the Chrome version of the extension on Vivaldi seems too work far better and quicker; ergo the FF add-on may not be up to the job. I have reinstalled the FF version, which seems to make a slight difference, but I expect these problems will recur.

I pay for Lastpass, and I'm afraid that as its annual cost has risen, its performance and overall security have fallen. There are other PMs that are better.
