There something I don’t understand. How does one use Bitwarden daily? It generates, remembers and autofill passwords, right? I rarely enter a password anywhere. What am I missing? Please educate me.
There are certain sites which terminate your sessions after a while. For example, banking sites or most government portals. In such situations, the auto fill function is very handy.
Also the fact that if you use a shared machine at all to login, it’s best practice to intentionally log out of everything, and clear cookies/cache when you’re done.
Like the other commenter said, I use it for sites that tend to sign me out after a few hours. I also use it for work things that sign out every session.
Way way late to this, but I’ll also say: Firefox and other privacy-focused browsers have an option to delete all of your browsing history and cookies when you close the browser, which also logs you out of anything you were using. It’s a good practice if you’re being mindful of how much tracking data you are letting be collected from you.

It also allows you to use long, complex, safe passwords, use different ones on every site, and not have to remember them.

I auto wipe cookies all on every browser close so that gets more use.

I only browse using privacy/incognito mode. Cookies are not stored so I need to reauth any time I open a new tab
