      You can host a bitwarden vault yourself. They open sourced and audited. So, trustworthy that there’s no back door somewhere to some degree.

      So just change whatever passwords you had saved to LastPass. That would mitigate any issues, right?

        Pretty much. Though also any security questions or other private info you have saved, some of which is much more annoying to protect.

        Though one annoying thing is that even if you change everything, what they find might help them social engineer an attack.

        I second Bitwarden, BTW. Best password manager I’ve used.

      It’s e2e and the code to do so is opensource, and you can always host Vaultwarden yourself.
