Despite the massive breach where we found out that notes (where lots of people stored previous passwords) were not stored encrypted by Lastpass, I have stuck with them for years because its hard to switch services.
Recently I realized that both my wife and I were paying for 2 separate password manager services and we need to consolidate down to one.
Staying with LastPass and moving to a family account would only cost $4/m which is still 1/2 what we were paying combined.
Is there another manager that offers Apple, Android, and Browser based applications/plugins? Ideally also with an authentication app, though I can swap to any authentication if I need to so its just a nice to have.

To add to this point,
I was using ProtonMail when I finally got serious about generating new email aliases for everything. I went as far as upgrading my plan and started setting up SimpleLogin when I ran into the fact that I couldn’t just send from arbitrary addresses using a domain THAT I OWN. I couldn’t even reply to emails to a particular alias, FROM that alias. It looks mighty sketchy to the other party when you reply from some address they didn’t know about with the contents of someone else’s email (for all they know). Trying to explain this to others was a terrible experience.
I came across Fastmail, saw they integrated with Bitwarden via API so Bitwarden could create aliases (Fastmail calls them “masked emails”), and verified that I could both send from arbitrary addresses using my own domain and easily reply from masked addresses properly. I moved over and I’ve loved it ever since.
As I understand it, Proton is still working on the sending feature I wanted but it’s obviously not a priority for them.
IMO, Fastmail + Bitwarden is a much stronger feature set than Proton + SimpleLogin. Which is nuts considering Proton/SimpleLogin’s close relationship.
If I ever want to migrate from Fastmail, it’s a DNS change…
