Premium Bitwarden is so cheap and effective that I find it difficult to justify using an alternative.

Keepass with syncthing is completely free and doesn't rely on cloud hosting

Still. Back it up

[–] ikidd 9 points 3 months ago

Not a bad idea to back up to a json, but every computer you've used has a local encrypted copy you can export from using the app or extension.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

Well sure... I have a local offline encrypted copy, rather than a whole separate password manager.

I self host my own Vaultwarden instance (a bitwarden server written in Rust) and it's more reliable than Google's password manager.

I use encfs and sync it to dropbox etc. Then use gopass password manager to store password in the encfs folders. Not fully auto-integrated but good enough for me.
