Using [Proton Pass](https://account.proton.me/refer-a-friend?referrer=0FES9KF6HHD0), I'm slowly moving all my online accounts and subscriptuons off my "real" email address to aliases that I can simply shut down if that org gets breached.

I've said it a thousand times. Even here when someone was talking about LastPass. (which recently got hacked and crypto was stolen from accounts) Never give your passwords to a company (3rd party). There is no cloud, that's a bullshit marketing term. They store your information in a database connected to the internet. Use an open source software like Keypass, save it manually on all your devices, and never upload it online. 🙄. Proton email is nice. Proton Pass is their online passwordm management service. Not the same and never a good idea. Don't be lazy. Store your own passwords offline.

I've tried to self-host with bitwarden, was unsuccessful (so far). Either way, I'd need "online" access or it would be pointless to even have a password manager. I need passwords when I'm not at home; I need password sharing with my wife; I store passwords for my (underage) children, etc.

I'm in agreement with your general stance, though, to not trust. It's a measured risk. And, obvsly, I don't store anything related to BTC online. But I lost it all in a boating accident anyway, so it doesn't really matter...
