Vent: Coworker told me I was overcomplicating my password manager setup

Guy at my shop said I was wasting time with a local-only encrypted vault and just use the built-in browser one. I switched to a shared team vault with 2FA tokens stored separately. Has anyone else had to backtrack after someone called out their overkill method?

...but is this really a hill worth dying on? @miles946 has a point about local vaults being safer, but at the end of the day it's just a password manager.

Respectfully disagree, local vaults are safer against breaches than browser ones.
