How to stop browsers from asking to save passwords

Whether you use a dedicated password manager like Bitwarden or 1Password, or you just prefer the privacy of not saving credentials in your browser, that 'Save Password?' pop-up can be incredibly annoying. This guide will show you how to stop Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox, and Brave from asking to save passwords on both desktop and mobile.

I personally use KeePass and KeePass2Android Offline as my password managers. KeePassXC and Bitwarden are also good options.
