I used LastPass Families for a few years, switched to 1Password for one year, and am now on Bitwarden. For me, it was the native MacOS app, so I can auto-fill apps besides just the browser (e.g. game and productivity software logins).

Does anyone know about SafeInCloud?
No I’ve never heard of it, but have just searched it and am having a read.
I just use firefox to remember my passwords
is there an advantage to switching to some third party app like bitwarden?
I feel like firefox is good enough and very easy to view/manage my passwords, but open to arguments why others are worth switching to
How does it store them though? I thought (this was maybe long ago) they they were stored plaintext on your machine instead of in an encrypted vault like password managers.
I’ll be honest, I have no idea how secure the firefox passwords are stored… maybe I should actually research this some more
but I would hope Mozilla has a reasonably secure method in place
