| Towards people with password managers, or towards people who want to have the freedom to choose how they log in? I also hate those damn login emails. |

| But everyone has a password manager now. They come builtin to all major browsers, Apple ecosystem, etc. My non-technical girlfriend uses one. |

| ▲ | rithdmc 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | Yeah, and I support anything that makes security by default easier. I'd love to see adoption numbers for in-browser password managers, though, because I feel it's not very high yet. | | |

| ▲ | vel0city 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | Because without that the argument of "everyone has a password manager" fails. Tons of people don't have 1Password or Bitwarden or Lastpass or KeypassXC or whatever. So sure, they might technically have a password manager installed, in that every major browser has a password manager included. But do they actually use it? That's what really matters. | | |
| ▲ | rithdmc an hour ago | parent [-] | | Yeah, this is why. "in-browser" was unclear when I also meant the iOS ecosystem password manager and stuff. |
