‘Dude’ — of course it’s an affiliate link (hence the presence of ‘This post includes affiliate links’) at the end of the article. I’m running a business and make good money from affiliate links from companies I trust and whose products I use. This is quite normal.
And no, I don’t have an affiliate — or indeed any kind of — relationship with LastPass, which is indeed part of the reason I’m not writing articles about them.
Thanks for reading and commenting, though — every little helps (I’m earning from each click and minute of read time on this article, too).
