What would be the recommended route for logging in to proton pass?
Currently I have a random string password string stored in Bitwarden and auto fill whenever I need to login to proton. Obviously I need to remember my master password to gain access to my vault.
If I were to potentially switch over to proton pass exclusively, I would need to change the proton password in something I can remember instead. I would argue it might actually reduce the security challenge for the proton account.
I’m a little worried about this too… With 1Password, I’m fine with having a master password I can remember, since I know it’s only useful to an attacker if they also have access to one of my devices, or know my Secret Key. That means that a targeted, high-effort attack is necessary to get in. Proton Pass just being protected by a single password makes it way easier to run remote attacks.
I agree with other comments, a long passphrase coupled with a couple of yubikeys would be great. Even more when a separate validation for Pass come to production. Hopefully soon.
You can login to proton pass (after the first time) with either a PIN for the browser extension, or your fingerprint on mobile (if your phone has a fingerprint reader). You can also make your password memorable but still very long.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !protonprivacy@lemmy.world

You can use 2fa with proton as well. I have yubikeys configured for instance.

Afaik they‘re working on deattach Pass from the other Services, until then I‘ll keep BW + Authy as a backup
A long memorable passphrase is pretty good as a master password for a password manager.
