So I'm a big fan of 2FA. I've recently activated a lot of them on my various online accounts once I realized how they work (I'm still kind of new to all the security options out there). It seems to make the most sense to me. I mean even if someone had my password they still would not be able to access my account because they would need my 2FA code that gets sent to my phone. right?
With the recent hack here on Steemit, I realized that this option is not yet available (would LOVE to have that option here by the way). So this got me thinking about security and password managers. I've always heard about them but have never used them, and I figured I could turn to the community here on Steemit and ask a couple of questions. People here seem to be very knowledgeable and helpful about such topics so here goes:
What do you guys think of password managers? Are they reliable, safe? And if so, which ones do you guys like the best.
In theory, if I have 2FA activated on all my accounts, does it even make sense to get a password manager or would it be an overkill? I understand they create long and secure passwords but is it necessary in your opinion with 2FA. As it is, I usually use my own long password in combo with 2FA.
I guess I'm just looking for some common sense information on this topic from someone who knows more about it than I do. Your thoughts are deeply appreciated. Thanks for reading.
