Hi! I'm aetherspoon and I want YOU to use a password manager!... so I'm going to bore you for an hour as to why. There are chapter markers in this, and most of the details are for exactly how to set up KeePass; if you're looking at "why a password manager?", that's the last section. :)

Please take note, while I AM a security professional I'm not YOUR security professional. This isn't an exhaustive list of things you should do and everyone's situations are a little different - meaning that KeePass might not be the right tool for your situation. I just think it is a right tool for most people's situations.

This video was inspired by discussion among my friends both offline and online talking about how they were glad they weren't using LastPass with their most recent security woes (https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/12/lastpass-says-hackers-have-obtained-vault-data-and-a-wealth-of-customer-info/) but just reused passwords instead. Instead of making yet another divot on my desk, I spent sixish hours making a YouTube video! Woo!
