I did the same switch too a while back, Bitwarden has been really solid.

Interesting thing: I just now remembered to delete my LastPass account, but the delete account flow breaks totally. Just end up in a modal without any content in it, both Firefox and Chrome.

I'm wondering if they are even deliberately blocking deleting accounts for damage mitigation?

Huh, you reminded me that I used LastPass for a while and still had that account. I went and deleted any passwords still in there, and then had to do a web search and found https://lastpass.com/delete_account.php which worked for me. I just had to confirm 2 or 3 times and then it claims it deleted my account. This is in Firefox on Windows.

Good to know, thanks. I'm on OSX. Maybe there's something funky with my account data then. I emailed their support, let's see what happens.

Honesty, I’ve been using LastPass for years and lately the chrome and Firefox extensions have been really buggy for me. Especially the chrome one. So I’m not sure it’s nefarious.
