Other than your eggs in one basket password apps being hacked and exfiltrating them all which would never happen.

"Our customers' passwords remain safely encrypted due to LastPass’s Zero Knowledge architecture."

I take your point but I'm not aware of any hack of a major provider which resulted in exfiltration of decrypted customer secrets. Providers often enumerate how they prevent exactly this scenario [1][2], but you'd be correct that if your endpoint were compromised, it's probably game over. To be fair in this scenario just typing in your password (not using a manager) would also be game over.

If you want other options, it is possible to self-host (i.e. Vaultwarden). Personally I've been using 1Password for a long time, and their "Families" offering [3] is exceptional for me and has meaningfully improved my family security since the UX is easy enough my loved ones don't find a unique password per site "a chore".

All it takes is a supply chain attack and it's all gone
