I mean the post is about people who dont want to put in effort to remember a good password, the path of least resistance here is still a good one. It’s not like the built in password managers are bad. With Firefox you can import from chrome and I believe you can also export the passwords if you wanted to move away from Firefox anyways. It’s not like you are locked away for good.
Fair enough but both the chrome and Firefox password managers are cross platform and can be exported and imported supporting the ability to move away from them in the future should you choose. So for a first step from having insecure passwords to a password manager that gives strong passwords for someone who doesnt even want to rema strong password in the first place, they are good steps in the right direction. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.
