Can we talk about paying for a password manager

I spent $40 on a 1Password subscription after my old free manager got hacked in 2022. Honestly it saved me when I found out my email password was leaked on some dark web list. That single alert let me change everything before anything bad happened. Anyone else had a close call like that?

You ever get that feeling when you check HaveIBeenPwned and your heart drops? I had a similar close call with an old password that got reused across a bunch of sites. Switched to Bitwarden after that and the auto-change alerts have been solid for keeping my stuff locked down.

Man I just read about that the other day, someone was saying how they had like 15 reused passwords and one leak basically blew up their whole digital life. @bennett.noah it's wild how fast that stuff can spiral, Bitwarden's been a lifesaver for me too honestly.
