    Not realy. The problem they solve is that people have accounts many on many websites, and the these sites need unique passwords to avoid people getting access to all your accounts when any of those sites get hacked.

    Are password managers the only solution? no.

      I just don’t like how they have been sold and marketed as THE fix for passwords. Well that and using the same password manager across devices always seemed like a vulnerability.

      To be fair it does not matter as much as people think as the chain is only as strong as the weakest link and most backend/physical infrastructure has been rotting from underdevelopment for years.
