    I have a proton membership anyways so proton pass seems good since they have SimpleLogin

      I just cannot get on board with Proton Pass while I cant have a completely different set of credentials.

      I keep my Proton passwords inside the password manager. Either I need to make my Proton password memorable and be my master password OR setup the 2 password mode where I need to remember and login 2 passwords.

      They need some kind of privacy pass implementation to link your Proton pass to your Proton account while allowing completely separate credentials.

        I keep the master password inside proton pass itself. I don’t want to be trusted with remembering anything. What if I lose my memory, ya know. They give a twelve word backup which you can use in case you get signed out of every device.

      Same, probably going to switch to it eventually even though I don’t like having all my eggs in one basket. Proton provides me a good quality service, can’t lie.
