MODERATORS
They have lately been improving their web apps a lot, but once you can edit sheets on Proton Drive and has a Linux client, I am gonna switch.
You re going to switch to which, proton? I just started switching back from proton drive to iCloud. Also switching back to Password from proton pass. They were both just such a hassle, it wasn’t at all worth it for me.
I am a long time Bitwarden user (since the first lastpass breach), how is passwords? Does it have an import function?
It sure does. Basically Apple took the iCloud password function and made it into a separate app, which is a big improvement on something that worked pretty darn well already.
I just recently imported all my passwords from Bitwarden to passwords. It’s been smooth sailing so far, very happy with my choice. If you have any specific questions I might be able to answer them.
I personally am very happy with Bitwarden, but I have been unable to get my wife to leave lastpass and my kids refuse to use a password locker. Hopefully passwords will nudge them that way.
I may also use it for work, some of my passwords I need anyone using the shop iPad to have access but I do not want them in my Bitwarden vault.
The import will fail if you have multiple passwords for the same domain. Actually, just those items will fail, not the whole import. But if you want to again switch to a different service, I don’t see any good export options.
A very convoluted export function though. They really try to lock you in as hard as they can.
Does Apple Password have an addon for Firefox?
I don’t believe so, I think it is chrome and edge only (besides safari of course). You could still manually copy-paste the passwords but of course that’s not as convenient.
I have not investigated
That’s unfortunate.
You can use Libreoffice and upload the files to Proton Drive
