Password manager for ordinary users?

I'm basing my suggestion off of the OP.

It's the nature of the entire context of the original post. A lot on here like to strawman, which throws things way off all the time, like now.
Nothing in the context of the original post implies any OS at all. "Ordinary users" implies nothing. We almost all have ordinary users on O365 with Chromebooks, MacOS, Linux, etc. Using "strawman" to mean "solid argument" doesn't make it a bad point. Windows is very likely part of the equation, but there is a good chance it isn't all of it. And whether it is or not, it purely a guess until we are told.

Not as solid as your BSD assumption I guess.

My assumption that BSD is not supported by Edge because they've not gotten around to Linux yet? Not sure what you are trying to imply, but it doesn't seem to make sense. The BSD assumption is extremely obvious and accurate.
Also not an assumption because I had already checked. So your assumption that it was an assumption, was wrong.

We aren't all big companies with endless money and no need to save money. Lots of us are MSPs and as MSPs we see all kinds of stuff and have to support Linux, we don't have the luxury of having only one OS and getting to assume that no other OS will ever exist for our users.
Here, we have hundreds of clients either rolling out or looking to roll out Linux (and often Linux on ARM) because it is what makes sense for their businesses, especially as their pockets aren't as deep as they used to be and they need places to save money and dropping 90% of the cost per workstation is a big deal to them. These are tiny, non-technical users in little SMBs.
That and Chromebooks are picking up.

Edge Chromium not supporting BSD is totally irrelevant here, that's my point. I assumed you brought it up because you assumed Pete's users are all runnimg BSD and was a factor in this. But it was just a spinoff to something besides any relevant point.

and it also works on all devices including phones.
Except Linux?
I'm seriously thinking they are holding out releasing a Linux version until history and open tabs is done.

I wouldn't be surprised. Edge is built on chromium and Microsoft has supported Linux with a lot of there release recently, Azure data studio, Teams, .net just to name a few.

They don't have a history? Or is that just a history sync or something?

I'm not sure what there is to 'release' though. Chromium works natively on Linux right now, I don't see what they would have to do.

I don't think people would care if the feature parity was the same across everything. If it's not available on Windows, I wouldn't assume I should have it. I prob won't use it anyway, just think it's kind of weird to hold back a whole environment because of a couple of feature flags.

Its either that or they working on making multiple install options like snap, flatpak, rpm, deb packages.

All their extras and stuff. There's already a beta insider for linux and Mac released in may. They have an Android version (and I assume iOS too)
I guess the beta isn't open yet.. but I can download it when logged in to my insiders account.
