I am concern what if someone hacks LastPass server, as I have added several sites In it Only because I do not like to manually add username/password

They will find the password encrypted so they can't see it

They encrypt everything so I believe if they even got into their server there wouldn't be much valuable information anyway.

Used LastPass for years, the only security issue is when you save your password to your PC - could be an issue if someone stole your laptop.

I am using lastpass for 2 years and so far no issue. That is safe because of their encryption methods.

Don't forget to enable two-factor authentication

I personally wouldn't trust anyone or any site with my passwords easier to store them on an offline device to stay safe

As far as I understood you can create your own server and secure the sub domains with nextcloud so it has encryption.
Question is do they need access? Maybe someone can answer that.
