LastPass
lights on, nobody home
17 years 353 days and counting
2008. The password manager that taught the category, then taught the category to leave.
Why it lasted
- Inertia. Vaults are sticky even after you no longer trust the landlord.
Times it almost ended
- The 2022 breach was the funeral. 1Password and Bitwarden took the living.
What would finish it
- A forced reset that finally makes export easier than staying. Many already left.
