    Not quite- I’d say they really became popular / usable around 10-15 years ago. In the early 2000s, people either used internet explorer, or opera.

    Opera /chrome didn’t support extensions until 2009.

    NOT- saying they didn’t exist, but, the idea of a browser-integrated password manager wasn’t a huge thing back then, I don’t believe.

      Roboform was originally released in 2000.

      Internet Explorer supported extensions for a long time (at least since IE5, maybe even IE3 or 4), and Firefox did too.
