LastPass recently neutered their free product (now you have to choose
between desktop or mobile access, rather than both included), so a lot of
folks are switching to alternatives. Bitwarden is one of the more popular
and highly rated options.

I didn't watch the video, so I can't say whether I agree with any of the
other content. I happen to use KeePass myself, but will probably try
Bitwarden "Real Soon Now" (to see if I can get my wife to use it).
