I use lastpass but don't know if it's the best or not. It works for me.

Lastpass is pretty good. Just don't forget the main password.

PCs have many options like Chrome, firefox, etc.
Phones have chrome, icloud, etc.

I use 1Password. We have a family account, which gives us unlimited shared vaults (e.g. Family, Kids, Customers) - and then each user has a private vault that no one else can access.

I have used numerous local and web-based password managers over the years for both work and home. I prefer Dashlane. It worked flawlessly on any device I ever needed. It's clean, has extensions for lots of browsers, has a terrific Android app, and offers great support. My wife likes it because it is simple for her to use on both her iPhone and Windows laptop.
I have extensive experience with LastPass, as well, as both a user and an enterprise administrator. Unlike others in this thread, I do not have an overwhelmingly favorable opinion of it. I find LastPass clunky with sharing, have had numerous browser extension issues, and experienced a few 2-factor authentication problems. I don't want to trash LastPass because it is a decent product with big distribution. I can see why folks might prefer it, actually. However, I find Dashlane to be the better product. Either way, you will be far better off than not having a password manager at all.
My favorite is KeePass but it is not plug-and-play. KeePass is far more versatile if you manage a lot of PC-app and Windows login passwords. If you want to share across many devices, unfortunately, KeePass becomes a labor-intensive, DIY effort. There's tons of support on the Internet for KeePass but it is nowhere near the fire-and-forget product that Dashlane and LastPass are. Good luck.

Can any of them also remember all of those damned security questions, automatically input things like the last four of my SS, or those thousand different “add-ons” to the password that many sites/programs now require?

Yes, all of them allow you to keep secure notes. Most even have sections to store credit card info, SSN, etc.

I recently had my phone stolen and hacked. They were able to gain access to all sorts of stuff once they hijacked my Google account.
After writing some information in a password notebook I began using LastPass. Thus far it has worked well but it doesn't sync instantly between devices. On my phone, it uses FaceID to fill passwords. However, it doesn't work with the fingerprint scanner on my laptop.

Have tried LastPass and Dashlane but 1Password has the best user interface and functionality for the money.

I used to use a KeePass DB synced between devices, but I moved to bitwarden about a year ago. I like it because I can self host it. They have a hosted service too for those who aren't into such things. Works like lastpass etc. There's a free version that's basically an individual account. If you pay or self host you can get some additional features like sharing passwords between users. It's got apps for all desktop OS, phone apps, and a web app and browser plugins. Can do 2fa for security (I'd highly recommend this regardless of what service you go with).
