Thats why I use browser compartmentalization, as well as multiple profiles within each browser. Browsers that I use for login purposes, are used exclusively for just those sites. For all my searches and random browser activity, I use a separate browser so that any scripts that can bypass uBlock origin will still end up getting nothing.Whatever password manager you use, make sure that autofill is disabled by default, so the user's interaction only.
For example Bitwarden allows you to do it, it is one more click, but it is prevents scripts from stealing your passwords.
That is the reason I started to use Edge's password manager, because it requires UAC/PIN on a secure desktop for autofill.

Don't let your browser autofill your passwords — here's why
Autofilling passwords exposes them to any malicious script on a webpagewww.tomsguide.com
Yes, trust is important, like with emails or AV. I use MS so it can as well handle my passwords.
People can also choose an offline password manager like Keepass, preferably open source.
I store core passwords in a double encrypted document. Core passwords as for emails and such, because if hackers would gain access to emails, they could easily get access to any account via a password recovery. I have password check for leaks disabled, obviously.
Not really, it is a basic feature of any keylogger to grab clipboard (as well as screenshots), Keepass uses TCATO to fight it. Then again, if you use it, make sure to clear clipboard to prevent any webpage from reading it via a simple javascript, simply copy any gibberish afterwards. Bitwarden allows to set the time limit after which it is cleared automatically.
