minus-squaresatanmat@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up16·11 months agoYes. Because IF. If your manager is hacked, see LastPass, it provides an additional layer of protection. This is kinda what passkeys do / are trying to do. You’re kinda just dropping the password and trusting that the MFA is secure. So yes, password managers are good. Unique passwords are very good. And MFA is the icing on the cake Imho
