I use Bitwarden and honestly couldn’t be happier. My partner and I both use it, so it’s incredibly easy to share any credentials we both need to use. It also works great on every platform I’ve personally tried it on, and I like that I can use it for totp 2fa as well.

Self hosted Bitwarden is the bees knees.
Bitwarden, easily. You can self host if you want to for added privacy. I don't, but the option is there.
Bitwarden user here.
Bitwarden. I left LastPass about 3 years ago and haven’t looked back. I pay for bitwarden so I can use the TOTP feature and because i can’t wrap my head around the recovery process for my wife if something were to happen to me. I think another, more technically fluent human will need to be involved if that ever comes to pass.

I just lead the migration from LastPass to 1Password for the business I work at. It was really prompted by the breaches at LP and their poor handling of it. For personal stuff, I just did whatever I was doing at work because the business plans come with free licenses for personal accounts.
Vaultwarden for work, KeePass and KeePassDroid for private use.
Bitwarden enjoyer here
I rolled my own, actually. I don't store any passwords (even encrypted). Instead, I just append the site name to my base password (which is in my head), hash it, and base-52 it. (I also start each password with the same uppercase letter, lowercase letter, punctuation mark, just to ensure it gets past any bullshit filters)
I like that there's nothing that can be leaked (except what's in my head) and nothing to be lost and nothing to back up.

Bitwarden here too
I use OneNote, with a bunch of coded words that mean other things and mix and match those to make longer passwords that are all different. Because I'm too lazy for a real app, and this is secure enough and useful enough.

Keepass with a separately stored keyfile and an otherwise shared passwordDB. Keepass2Android makes the bridge into Android.
I have been on Bitwarden for about 8 years now. Paid for it about 7 years ago. I LOVE it. I also use KeePassXC On my Linux box and for work - That's a great platform for anything that requires even more security (Work, Security focused websites, etc)

Has anyone tried Proton Pass?
I've been using Bitwarden, but the second proton releases proton pass to the public I'll try to switch
self hosted passbolt is very convenient, didn't see more secure alternatives. The only bad thing is that it cannot save TOTPs currently

Bitwarden after lastpass started charging for the same service
Enpass. I sync my vault with my Nextcloud, but it would also work completely offline or with direct-sync between my devices.

NextCloud
- Bitwarden for my Passwords.
- Keepass for my password for Bitwarden.
- An master password + picture(key) combination for access to my keepass.

Bitwarden for several years.
Same here. I used to have LastPass, but after their privacy fiasco, I moved to Bitwarden, which I find to be rock solid. The fact that it's open source helps me feel more at ease that they won't pull any crap as easily as other password managers.
